Trying to get a group purchase together for some AWESOME, SUPER COOL radiators for the FFR Cobra. These are top quality, high performance radiators made by
Ron Davis Radiators , and being offered by Gordon Levy .

These radiators feature:

Better cooling than the stock donor unit (wider and thicker)
All aluminum construction
Dual 12" fans
Custom shroud

Per Gordon, the cost is as follows:
Ok guys, here's the scoup on the custom radiators. For a 1 off with shroud and 2, 12" fans it will be $649. If we get a group purchase together and order 5 it will be $595. If we can get 10 or more, it will be $525. This is a custom design done by Ron Davis and Myself to fit the FFR. Shipping will very from $20-$40 depending on where you are. Please let me know. 480-446-8442.
We have three orders so far. If you are interested, please call Gordon Levy, and post here.

Here is an example of what they look like. They will have the correct Ford inlet/outlet, and can be ordered with or without a filler neck.

What size are you planning to order? The real question is can each person order a different size or do they all have to be the same?

Gene
the radiators will all be the same size and will fit the FFR nicely.
Do you know the actual size? The reason I'm asking is because I don't have a FFR. I have an EM with a big block and like most big blocks, it tends to run on the hot side. A larger radiator (28" x 19") is a plus.

I assume it is 2 core, but do you know what the tube size is (1" or 1.25"). Also, will you be ordering these with the filler neck or use a purge fitting in it's place?

Sorry for all the questions.

You guys that are worried about too much shrouding should check this fan out. This is what I am going with.

These fans have their own shrouding and if you look closely, you can see 'rubber flaps' along the top and bottom of the shroud. The flaps open from forced air during cruise and close from fan suction when idling. It's made by Spal and puts out 2780 cfm. Runs about $280 plus another $50 or so for the thermostat/relay kit.

I mentioned in my previous post above that I was going to use the dual Spal fans. Well, I ended up purchasing the 'off the shelf' Ron Davis radiator (just happened to be the size I wanted) from Gordon and installed it over the weekend. So far this setup is working great! Fans kick on at 195 and within 1 minute the temp is back down to 180 and fans shut off. The real test of course, will be when I get stuck in traffic during the summer but all indications point to no problems.

Here's a pic of my new setup.



Gene :D :D :D
