One of two things wanting to put in a new radeator so my eng will run cooler.. any of you done it out there and how was it work the extra chash? and TWO I want to buy a Mopar FLash but I can not find it. does it really exhist??so many question and so many answers..

 

yes i had to replace my rad after my motor was producing over 400 hp it is a night and day diff as for a custom flash go to www.socaldakota.com click on engine mods then mopar you will see computer flash ,they will do it right the first time

 

what els have you done to your durango? did you have it dino?

 

J if your truck isn't wildly modded like bad's D then you can upgrade your fan to a crown vic fan I have read on these forums that it does great I'm about to do that myself. Propably a bit cheaper too.

 

mean green is right on the price the be cool rad was not cheap as for the dyno results i am currently at 389 to the wheels and 391 ftlbs and i run 20 inch wheels ,,thats all motor ,i am currently working on a turbo set up that will cost less than $2 gs for everything

 

My durango is running a little warm too (Dallas/Fort Worth area blistering at 100-107 lately) and my temp is holding around 210 while using A/C. I like to see what I can do to help keep my engine running as cool as possible during the summer seasons.

What is a crown Fan compared to the regular factory clutch fan?

How much is that be cool radiator and how efficient is it in removing heat compared to the stock radiator? I know my R/T has the heavy duty cooling package that comes with R/T's so I do not know if that means it comes with a bigger than normal radiator?

 

I think if I read right the the mechanical fan (clutch) is left alone and you just replace the electric one with the crown vic fan I think there are 2 fans on the crown vic vs 1 on the D or the fan is just angled better than the D.

 

I went and looked at the opening of the radiator shroud and it looks tight to shove 2 fans side by side? Unless they are mounted from the front instead of the back of the radiator. The OEM electric fan I see mounted on the radiator is pretty darn big. encompasses more than 80 percent of the radiator surface.

Today, been idling alot around town with temps about 100-102 degrees, first time I saw my temp gauge went over the 210 mark. Judging by its position, I think I was running around 220 and that is the hottest this rig ever ran. Hope I don't have a failing pump or a radiator starting to clog. Been flushing my system annually.

 

Well Ken like I said I'm not 100% on this as I've never looked under the hood of a crown vic but I have seen it around on the forums here about the upgrade I guess I'll have to look for it to see exactly what the people said that did the upgrade.

 

I saw a new rad for like 150 it is said to be much better than the stoke rad but I was wondering about room any choice you out there have seen like a brand names.. if now I will just have to buy and test.. thanks for all the damn good coments...
