I was wondering if anyone has ever used a 4 cylinder radiator in a stock 5.0 foxbody. My GT radiator has a leak and had this 4banger Radiator laying around. I just dont want to put it in and have over heating issues but it does fit w/out any modification of course is mostly why im asking.

IIRC a 4 banger rad is a single core,I would not recommend a single core for a v8 car.

I agree I would not run the 4banger radiator.

V8 cores are pretty easy to come by. Also i'm pretty certain some V6/AC cars actually came with a factory 3 core. They're not very common.

It will fit physicaly but the inlet and outlet may be wrong. Im with the rest, if you need to get the car home or to a garage to work on it, Id do it in a pinch but I wouldnt try to drive long with it.
