Putting a VE in a 96 Ford. With the way the engine sits, the fan is too close to the stock 7.3 rad for comfort. It is running an he351 over s472, and I'm curious as to how big I really need to go with a radiator. I'd love to use a universal radiator like this one, it's the right size and would fit in perfectly. The price is also better than the $800 plus I've been quoted for a custom one.
I haven't been able to find any sort of guideline for sizing a radiator in a diesel.
