I have a Mancini aluminum 26 inch in the road runner and I am very happy with it. I am now looking to buy one for the demon, which is a 22 inch radiator support and hoping it will cool the hemi.

Went with 4secondsflat and ordered the dual pass. had to have the brackets welded on once I figured out where they needed to be. Am very happy with the cooling. but having both inlet and outlet on the same side is a bit bad, and no transmission cooler. Though I have learned to live with both. The first because I swapped engines and got over it, the second because a lot of people don't recommend using the coolers built into rads anymore anyway.

Very happy with it except that when I received it, it had scratches on the top, one deep. That to me is inexcusable. I guess their quality control ain't so good. 2010 Black Challenger SE <> 3.5 V6 Custom Shift Knobs www.flameball.com Check It Out

One for my 512 Challenger and 1 for my 493 Roadrunner. Both are using Ford Contour electric fans we've only reached 90 degrees here so far but both are staying cool.

The Cuda stays cool even in heavy traffic at over 90 degrees outside here in South Alabama and I drive it 70+ miles a day to and from work. Both fit perfectly and ya cant beat them for the price IMO. I wouldnt call them "show quality", but they look good enough for a normal car. Laine. NRCA Member

It was scorching hot out. I believe he's got 3.91's, 440 tunnel ram. Engine stayed cool the whole trip. I’m listening.
