IMO - I would never accept that - not after laying out money for a brand new radiator and receiving it damaged.

If it was damaged like that, there is a high possibility the core rows were tweaked. If tweaked and not visible to the naked eye, those rows were they intersect the tanks have the possibility of having cracks and will leak in the very near future.

Call Mishimoto and tell them the unit arrived damaged.

Don't spend the time installing a damage part.
Your a little late. Post 41114. 🙂

Actually, it's 138 deg F.

I’ve never seen someone correlate engine COOLANT TEMP to engine OIL TEMP before - and decide that because engine oil temp was “high” that the radiator needs to be replaced and that will reduce engine OIL TEMP.

What am I missing?

—-
Also to note - the factory radiators afforded to the platforms are more then adequate for daily driving, even in extreme geographic locations.

If there is a coolant problem - aside from leaks OR air pockets OR internal blockages (water passages, rad core or heater core) the thermostat is first source to check, then water pump would be next on list.

No offense at all, but if oil temps are running higher than Ford Manual temp specs (NOT green vs red on a dummy dial), then other diagnosis is needed to determine what is causing the higher oil temps and what remedies are the right choice.

Just a zip tie?

I'm ready to order those, what tools are needed other than a zip-tie?

Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Does the trick. Don’t have to worry about ruining my washer line....

Anyways, the kit will come with everything needed.

Put the rear and passenger seats back in and street wheels back on after a trip to the drag strip last night.

Hows your experience with that screen? Looks nice.
I've have no issues with that screen. I've had it for about 18 months. There are pros and cons to the tesla/sync3/metra+hu. Being the cheapest of the options and the most customizable the tesla is right for me.

Installed a tow hook. Since I don't want it on all the time I made a holder to mount it in the trunk.

I saw your total weight with driver, but do you know what the total was on back seat and front passenger? That should be around 100 itself.
