I changed it out for an aluminum 2 pass radiator and now the temperature stays steady even on the hottest of days and worst of traffic. I had the 2 pass custom made by Mattson's "The Fan Man" ( https://the-fan-man.com/ ) so it would mount in the same places as the previous radiator. They do quality work and can make a nice looking shroud with electric fan mount for you as well.

I bought an AFR 2 pass radiator for my Miura project car from Summit so there are some off the shelf options for them as well.
I mistakenly gave you a wrong company name for a radiator. It's actually AFCO and the model is 80119N that I used in my Miura. It might be too tall for a Cobra but at the price certainly worth taking some measurements: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/afc-80119n
