Radiator and Cooling

Just wondering what you FI guys are using for a radiator and fans? Anyone having success keeping water temps down using the factory radiator or have you upgraded your radiator?

Being in So. Fla., I have been having some problems keeping the temps down AND using the AC in city traffic. It seems to me that there's not alot of room to use a 2.5" (thickness) core radiator such as a BeCool, run a dual fan setup, and an 8 to 10 rib belt for the S/C. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

My stock rad and fans worked great with the M6. Now that I changed over to a TH350 I spin close to 3500 rpm on the highway, and it won't stay cool at anything over 70 mph. Time for a new rad

I'm using an AFCO unit in my car. I did modify the core supports to get it in there, but it works really good (when both the fans are wired up...oops ).
