Not Ranked
I was looking the other day at the OEM radiator in my 07 Z06 and the tube/fin spacing is muck tighter than on the Griffin in the Cobra. With that said, I think with the "loose" fins and tube spacing the new Taurus fan should pull more than enough air through the core (hopefully). Of course, the proof will be in the pudding. For a "racing" radiator, per say, the HP rating is the most important factor for capacity rating since most "real" race cars never idle for prolonged times like our street driven Cobras do.
