I been getting alot of E-mails about how to install the Howe radiator and if I could make custom brackets etc. From doing a search and looking at the pictures it looks like that thing doesn't fit for sh*t in the Z. Nothing to hold it on the bottom, No drain, No outlet for the reservoir, No outlet to release traped air bubbles, No brackets to attach the stock fan shroud, Have to use an aftermarket cap and the pipes are all at the wrong angles :-(. Here are some pictures of the SGP Radiator that we had made for the Z's. Keep in mind that I *know* it is more expensive then the Howe and some people don't need a full race radiator but we made ours so it would drop right in for the racers that needed it.  You can kinda see the brakets for the stock shroud, the drain outlet on the bottom right and the tabs that will slide into the stock TT lower rubber mounts.
 This shows the outlet to release traped air bubbles
 This shows that the stock cap will fit and the outlet for the reservoir
This is in no way made to flame the guys that have purchased the Howe Radiator. This is just to show why our radiator will be more expensive then the Howe. Unfortunately I am very aware that we will not sell 1/1,000,000 the amount of radiators like the Howe that are made to fit a Mustang and probably sell like hot cakes since everyone and their dog has a Mustang :-). So with this in mind the price will reflect on the low volume of sales expected and the price will be in the mid $500 range :-(. Unless everyone wants to preorder one and I can promise the company sells in the thousands...LOL. Well with all this said please don't expect me to answer questions here because I will not be online much. Shoot me an E-mail if you have questions and please stop E-mailing me about the Howe :-).
