mishimoto rads from AM. who likes em?


hey i see that AM has these on sale for $200 by the end of today. I was wondering how many people like these or have used them. i read a few reviews where people said they have leaked and all, but mishimoto will send u a new one for free if it does leak. I read these increase cooling capacity by 20-25%. I read about some other rads (fluidyne, LFP) and they have cooling claims of the same 20-25% as well. So if they all cool the same roughly, would it be better to just get the mishimoto since its cheaper?

crap, I was driving to atlantic city and i looked down and my car was overheating. pulled over and had a puddle of coolant under my car. After pulling the radiator out it turns out the welds were crappy and it cracked in more than one spot. It doesnt have the supports the the OEM ones do.

they are complete junk. If your going to buy a radiator get one of these if you have the money

I have this one and it cools better than any other mustang radiator

I bought a radiator off of EBay. SWEET2KSTANG told me that either him or Doc8224 got one from there and it worked fine. So far it's been working great. I'm pretty sure it's OEM surplus. It's the one that says warranty on it. A lot of them do and they are all the same company when you start looking into it.
