Radiators for Cobras ?

[FUNFER2]

Ok, I know there's threads on radiators, but our cobras have them far back from the nose that it's harder to get air in at slow speeds.

I have the Griffin that Lone Star Classic uses. It works ok, but is there better ?

With my first fairly high performance built FE engine, it never ran over 215 degrees in hot weather & traffic, which was just fine. Spal fan & shroud with a adjustable temp probe in the fins worked well.

I wish I remembered the guy I spoke with a few years back, that said the radiator and fan he found best, was like out of a 1990's mid-size Chevy car that he found at a junk yard for around $50. No further information.

So, here's some questions. And please explain why,... with your answers !

What works the best ?

What brand ?

How many cores, 2-4 ?

Brass, aluminum, steel etc ?

Racing type, aftermarket aimed for Hot Rods/customs, or stock daily driver ?

Stand up straight or tilted back and why ? (BIG QUESTION, as some say if tilted back, air flows over the fins better, thus cooling better)

50/50% antifreeze, less, or none at all, but using a conditioner ?

I guess we could also chat about the type of fan/fans that work best, since it's of course a major factor of cooling. The shroud is also a key to cooling.

Brand ?

Single, double ?

How much cfm ?

Straight or curved blades, "s" blades ?

Is the noise of high cfm a factor to you ? (it can drive you crazy)

Feel free to add to the list of questions !
