All alloy radiators aren't that bad - $300ish USD. The good thing about using drivetrain parts like a GM auto trans and the Ford rear end is price/availability. You'd be in a tight spot to find an auto 4 speed from a Mighty Max and it wouldn't like having all that turbo torque pushed through it for long. Can't wait to see how it all goes together!
It was $360 CAD with free shipping, that came with the two fans and the shroud. Ebay search for "Yonaka Radiator". This one was specific to the 90-94 talon chassis, but with enough searching there probably is something else that might possibly fit better. The welds on it don't look too bad. Definitely could have been welded better with a skilled person behind a tig, but that person would most definitely not be me when its aluminum lol.
Its been a while, I have been making progress although its not as much as I was hoping for, but its in the right direction anyways. The 4 link is done, installed. Bars have been powdercoated, diff and the brackets are all bare still. This pic is still with the stock front suspension on.
And speaking of front suspension... you can say these bushings were well beyond due for replacement. Poly bushings were installed in their place.
Just a picture of the 19's that I will run on the street and the 15's for the drag strip. Once this rubber burns off the 19's then it will get something with some more sidewall, I just find it hard to take off tires that have less then a few hundred miles on them just to change them.
