[QUOTE="1BAD454SSv2, post: 1494323, member: 31039"] Full Race pic below guesstimate the tubes are 3/8" wide and 19 tubes that 7 inches of blockage if they were stacked together. , plus end tanks block air. So rough sq inch guesstimate is 14 sq inches of blockage. like a piece of 14" X 14" inch piece of card board over you radiator. I'm sure the FR intercooler is very eff at lowering boost temps , but that heat has to go somewhere . SVC has 17 rows and smaller end tanks than FR . Now add A/C condenser heat , by time air hits radiator its way hotter than ambient . In AZ airflow is everything 4 months out of the year. Other than oem diesels using stacked intercoolers their surface area is huge , most ford Hi perf boosted vehicles mount intercooler or heat exchanger out of path of radiator , my 02 Lightning mounted low , cobras are low, Raptor low . So it looks like you have to buy a FR radiator that is bigger to keep your coolant temps down, if you have a front mount intercooler. [ATTACH=full]145838[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
