High Capacity Radiator

Is it worth on a full bolt on Mustang? Live in dry arid desert. Temps in the summer average 90-110. Summer here is from April until Mid September.

It would probably lower your water temps, which I am sure is good for longevity.

It won't hurt at all. Extra capacity will help the cooling system work more efficiently. Especially if you run a lower temp thermostat. I'm running a Mishimoto in mine and its a great piece for the money.

Thanks for the replies I know its not an exciting post. Yeah I think it makes sense for longevity. I looked up Mishimoto and the only one I found is for manual and I have an auto. I was looking at Steeda's high capacity one.

You may want to look into getting a BOSS Oil Cooler, they are like $125 on AM and can be easily installed in two hours.

Yes this looks to be worth the $ and time too out here in the desert, paired with the radiator I believe that will help my application a lot.
