08SC0023 Posted August 1, 2010 Report Share Posted August 1, 2010 I just ordered my set through Shelby on Friday, Tim said 6 to 8 weeks. After waiting over 3 months for my car, this will be a walk in the park, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprint200 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 There really is just one good choice; the C&R/Shelby kit from Revan Racing! If you go with any other product, whether out of time convenience or cost considerations, you will only be postponing the inevitable and costing yourself more time and money changing it again in the future. Ask me how I know. When Van first came out with his radiator, he offered me a great deal on the first "group buy". But since I was already purchasing an AFCO heat exchanger (he didn't tell me what he was up to there yet......) and because I thought I could save money, I decided to purchase a Fluidyne radiator instead. Yet my heat soak problems persisted. I couldn't run 3 hot laps (at 9/10ths) in June-August without pegging the temps and going into limp mode. It was maddening. And this was with aftermarket cooling products already installed. And my only power adders were a CAI and an upper pulley! 18 months later I was selling the other products and buying Van's stuff. Now with two months and several track days on this cooling system, I can finally stop worrying about engine temp's; well at least from a cooling system capacity perspective. Still have to keep an eye on the gauges, eh? It was an expensive lesson for me, so learn from my mistakes and save yourself the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
