Looking at the Mishimoto 3-core radiator. Does anyone have any input on clearance issues with Roush or Whipple SC installs? I know the Mishimoto is thicker than a base GT radiator. I just dont want to buy one if it went fit with a SC install. Mine will be a Magnuson, but I'm guessing Roush or Whipple guys would have the same potential fitment issue.

With the Whipple it requires some modifications to fit. The rear barb on the top of the tank has to be trimmed. Also you have to take the two clips that the tank mounts and reverse them so they are closer to the front and trim the plastic a little bit. It's not hard to make it fit but it does require some modifications.

As Tim mentioned I have the Mishimoto with a Whipple. I did not have to make any modifications like Sagacity mentioned, just installed it.

Only think I did and not because of radiator was trim the upper and lower hose about 1.5" because I have the 10 rib kit and the hoses were a little too close to the pulleys for comfort.
