Finally got around to dropping my 3 row radiator in,along with my Taurus SHO e-fan,and adjustable fan control.VERY noticeable power increase over the flex fan(and it does'nt sound like a C-130 at takeoff).

3 row radiator from the pull a part (practically new) $30
Taurus fan from the same place $25
Controller $18 at Advance
Zip tie type fan mounts $3 at O'reilly's

Grand total of $76 :D:metal:

If need be,I can come by and show you,or you can come check mine out,it's a little easier to do it "hands on".

I actually found it in a '93 4 banger hatch of all things!

I'll put the part #'s up of the controller,and fan mounts when I get home from work.As far as the fan goes,just find one from a Taurus.

I noticed a lot of 4-bangers out there (Bham Location) when I went but I didnt know they came with 3-row radiators.

This was the first that I've seen,but from what I've read since then,there was a HD cooling option available for them! The only reason that I can think of,is because they switched to the 8 plug head in '91 or '92 on the 2.3's.:shrug:

might be making a trip tomorrow, lol. The old T-bird could use a little cooling boost.

You can get a pretty cheap good quailty 3 core radiator from Oreillys for under $100 new...I have never saw the fox cars with the big radiators stock, but im sure it is possible but I imagine they are few and far between....

Ehardy, which speed did you wire up the hi or the low or both? Those 3.8 and SHO taurus fans are 2 speed fans if they are they same ones I have been using for years.

The one I have is a single speed (2 wires),I think it was a '95.
