Radiator size

[subject617]

Just had a look under the hood (without removing the rad cover) its more than 30mm (or for weird unit countries: 1.06740510463 e-10 lightseconds)
Honeslty, i expected it to be a thicker boy, so i might remove the cover someday to investigate further.

From memory and thinking of the proportions, I think it’s the thicker one - the hood should be up later so I will check

Thanks guys - yes - I too have most of PP1 and virtually all of the premium extras. Unfortunately New Zealand has just gone into full lock-down with Covid and my Mustang is not at my address so cannot get to it to measure the radiator. Thanks again for the info. Good to know that others have a mixture of different 'packages'. One other thing - the extra bracing under the car with PP1 - does it still need these if you have magneride damper?

You can just about see the front edge of the rad, without removing the radiator panels and looking down the hole in the panel under the hood strut securing clip.

Lining the steel rule up to the front edge of the road gives me approx 37mm, which lines up with the 1.5" thickness quoted for the PP rad :

With regards to the under car bracing - yes, I believe our Euro PP1's get that and yes they are still needed / fitted on MR cars. I've also added the additional Steeda lower brace and the strut tower brace that they miss off or RHD euros

Thanks for that - my build sheet gives the radiator measurements as 643 x 502 x 36.4 mm (1 & 1/2 inches) so it must be the PP1 radiator fitted. These must come standard with cars built for Australia/New Zealand and possibly Europe as the build sheet also says 'standard cooling system'. It is great to find all these things out as I am very new to the Mustang world. Have owned Mercedes-Benz for 40 years. First car of a different brand for a very long time! But the looks and sound of these cars are like nothing else.
