is a late modle 5.0 radiator the same as super coupe thunderbird radiator with a 3.8 V6 supercharger?
if so will the super coupe rad or the mustang rad cool a stock 351 windsor with the super coupe electric fan
if not what rad can i use thats just as small as the super coupe size
i have the super coupe rad already bolted in but upon filling it up to the top with coolant the top tank leaks like a mother fucker (soaked my engine compartment now it smells like dead fish)
the reason its a tight fit is its in a maverick with limited space cause of the 351
hoping to get around hacking the rad support again by using a mustang radiator

Both are the same Fox chassis......... but if I remember correctly, the T-bird had a 1inch shorter radiator, but they was the same lenght.
