Re: Mach 1 Cooling Mod (thoughts?)

thats basically the old LDC style. I wanna say the loser over at MMR make one and maybe Cobra Engineering does too?

the Lethal performance style one can be installed without having to drop the trans.

In my opinion that mod is really more about the valves/heads. I think it's a good idea to give the coolant a path out but for a stock/stock-ish car thats not beaten on too hard it's probably not like an absolute must

Re: Mach 1 Cooling Mod (thoughts?)

I have used my car for track days for years and have 155,000 miles on it. I do have a revised ds head due to the "tick" but have done nothing else and it's been great.

I've never done the cooling mod on mine. 19K miles. Mostly street / strip. Procharged since '05.
