From the factory, your Mustang was equipped with a radiator that used plastic end tanks. Over time, these end tanks commonly cracked from years of track day abuse and heat cycles, causing annoying coolant leaks. To overcome this issue, SVE has researched and developed this all-aluminum radiator to maximize heat dissipation and performance, while keeping your engine temperatures low! SVE designed this radiator to be a direct bolt-on replacement for any factory radiator that is clogged, leaking, or damaged. **SVE Quality** Featuring a large 3-row cross-flow design, this aluminum radiator from SVE will increase coolant flow compared to the factory radiator. Due to the larger aluminum end tanks, the coolant capacity will be increased, ensuring your 1997-2004 Mustang runs as cool as possible! A sleek satin black finish and beautiful TIG welds can be seen across the body of this radiator to ensure long-lasting looks & leak-free performance. Air fins with a high efficiency allow for optimal airflow in any driving environment. To enable easy servicing, a drain plug with a rubber o-ring is included. SVE made sure this radiator utilizes factory-sized inlets and outlets, making it the perfect choice for your 4.6 Mustang. **Radiator Dimensions** Overall Dimensions: 30.1" x 19.9" x 4.2" Core Size: 25" x 16.75" Inlet Diameter: 1.5" Outlet Diameter: 1.75" Core Depth: 2" Thick **Aluminum Radiator Maintenance** Proper maintenance of an aluminum radiator is essential for the longevity and efficiency of your vehicle's cooling system. Start by performing a complete flush of the entire cooling system, including all hoses and the engine block, to ensure it is free from old fluid or contaminants. Always refer to your user manual for the correct type of coolant and maintain a 50/50 mix of coolant and water. Failing to do this can lead to electrolysis, where electricity flows through the system, causing severe corrosion and pitting on the aluminum surfaces. To avoid this, regular maintenance every 30,000 miles is recommended, including flushing and inspecting the system. Additionally, NEVER use the radiator as a ground for electrical components, as this can accelerate electrolysis and lead to further damage. **Product Notes** Automatic transmission-equipped Mustang will require the proper cooling line adapter available here LRS-7273A. The transmission cooler line ports are a sealed internal tube on the Manual Radiators, these ports will not leak if left open. We also recommend the use of LMR Radiator Brackets (97-04) with this radiator The ABS Module Brackets may need to be bent slightly backward to allow adequate clearance to the radiator The A/C Hardline may have to be moved slightly to clear the large radiator core.
