I have decided that I will be doing some cooling mods this winter to keep my engine temps down this upcoming track season. During the track season I am running a mixture of 75% water and 25% antifreeze and a bottle of water wetter. So far the car will be getting a Fluidyne radiator, I will be boxing the radiator, replacing the stock airdam with a larger one, and getting an autometer water temp gauge to keep an eye on it.
That being said is there anything else I should be considering?
what are your guys thoughts on an aluminum fan shroud like this 1997-04 Mustang Aluminum Fan And Shroud Kit at LRS - Free Shipping!? worth it?
Should I also be looking into a different thermostat?
Also I can't find any decent input regarding oil for open track days. I am running auto store Royal Purple 5w30 which is what is always in my car. I know RP has other types ie: HPS and XPS. My other friends mostly just run motorcraft oil. Any specific oil I should look into? and should I be changing the oil after each track event?
