Hey!

Is that the Proliance aluminum core/plastic end tanks radiator?

If so, How is the fit and finish?  I'm considering buying one for the t-bird.  It looks to be a 1 row, right?


I put this on my car in 30 minutes and works very well. The dirver's side tank looks not quite straight but not very noticable in the car. Very easy install and looks good. Dropped my coolant temp 30 degrees or so.

sweet...looks like you might need an intake spacer. is the intake touching the valve cover? id probably go with wider tires as well. the ones on there look a little skinny.

I got a intake 1" spacer does not fit under the hood so its for Sale make a offer if anyone needs it the tires and wide enough and Nitto Street Slicks cost way 2 much for a set anyway the tires stay till i make them go away by burning rubber.

Sliver and Blue paint job soon with a few blackouts and custom embelms on the whole outside.

I kinda like the wheels on there...that PCV valve looks pretty angry...you know they sell 3/8" spacers for most intakes.

good luck,

Looks good. I agree with the tires. Dished would have looked sick on the rear. Paint? Who needs that? Primer and and speed is all you need.

How do i post more than 3 pictures at a time?

Get a free hosting service (like Photobucket, there are a few people around here that use it), upload all your pictures there, and when you are typing your post, there is a button you can click that allows you to enter the web address of an image, which is then shown in your post.

1. Upload your images to photobucket.
2. Type your post, and use the "Insert Image" button:


3. Enter URL (web address)



For example, I entered http://www.cougarxls.com/pf/enterurl.jpg.
4. Image will appear in your post if you've typed the address properly.  Some sites are case sensitive.

You can add as many pictures as you like in a post at once (just don't forget those dialup people :hick: *Edit: LOL, and those of us who never really cared for your paint schemes :poke: ).
