just drove about 50 miles round trip in 95 degree weather. as soon as i pull in my driveway and get out i hear fluid hitting the ground, busted upper radiator hose, ran to pep boys and thankfully they carried a replacement. Thankfully roadrunner made it back to the house, i never want to deal with a cracked head again lol

Came out to a small puddle of antifreeze under passenger side, the infamous OEM plastic radiator bottle connection is toast, ordering the Csf 2 row radiator from radiator barn, anyone have experience with this radiator?
