Is there an aftermarket replacement for the SVT radiator?
The Part number listed in the Part Number sticky thread lists one, but that part number is the same for SVT/Non SVT.
FPO.com has a new SVT radiator for about $190, but if there is a aftermarket replacement for less, then that would be more money to put elsewhere in the car.
Any ideas?

Yeah, I've checked that out, but I would rather get a new one. Getting a used radiator seems somewhat ghetto IMO.

Doubtfull, IIRC the ATX has its transmission cooler in its radiator. The SVT unit would not have that built in.

Then you are golden.
Sounds like a great combo upgrade to me. Extra protection and cooling for both the engine and tranny.

It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
