For the past couple of years, I have used a 55 passenger car radiator on my engine run stand, running the passenger car t'stat housing and water pump. The old radiator is full of holes and has become a nuisance even though the run stand isn't used every day (well, pretty close Tongue). I don't want to purchase a brand new radiator and shell out 400 or so just for an engine run stand, but I would like to keep close to the original dimensions so I don't have to change too much. I supposed I could put a truck radiator on there and change out the tsat housing. I have seen some new radiators with Jeg's and Summit that aren't too pricey, but I have never ordered a radiator through them before.... and, I have heard tell that the 65/66 Mustang radiators are direct bolt in and you don't have to even change the lower radiator hose...?
