Vortech Power Cooler Upgrade Kit - Satin (1986-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0L) 8N301-010
Air-to-Water Charge Cooler Upgrade for Fox Body 5.0L Mustangs
The Vortech Power Cooler Upgrade Kit (PN 8N301-010) is an air-to-water charge cooler upgrade package designed for 1986-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0L vehicles currently equipped with a non-intercooled Vortech H.O. Supercharging System. This kit converts an existing non-cooled setup to a charge-cooled configuration, significantly improving intake air temperature control and overall boost efficiency.
On an otherwise stock 5.0L Mustang LX, GT, or Cobra, this upgrade is capable of supporting approximately 8-10 psi of boost when properly installed and configured.
Why Upgrade to a Charge-Cooled System?
Adding an air-to-water charge cooler helps reduce inlet air temperatures created by compression under boost. Lower charge air temperatures improve power consistency, reduce detonation risk, and allow the engine to operate more efficiently - especially during extended boost or spirited driving.
This Power Cooler upgrade is ideal for Fox Body Mustang owners looking to increase reliability and performance without replacing their existing Vortech supercharger system.
