All-Aluminum Construction:

The CSF Racing radiator features all-aluminum construction, which provides several advantages over the factory copper/brass radiator. Aluminum is lighter, more durable, and resists corrosion better than copper/brass. The all-aluminum design also provides better heat transfer characteristics, improving overall cooling efficiency.

Dual-Core Design:

The dual-core design provides significantly improved cooling capacity compared to the factory single-core radiator. The dual-core configuration increases the surface area available for heat dissipation, allowing the radiator to handle higher heat loads from track use, turbo/supercharger installations, or hot climate driving.

TIG-Welded End Tanks:

The end tanks are TIG-welded for maximum strength and leak-free operation. TIG welding provides superior weld quality compared to other welding methods, ensuring the end tanks can withstand the pressure and thermal cycling of the cooling system without developing leaks.

Brazed Aluminum Core:

The radiator core uses brazed aluminum construction, which provides excellent strength and heat transfer characteristics. The brazing process creates a strong, leak-free bond between the tubes and fins, ensuring reliable operation even under demanding conditions.

Direct Bolt-On Fitment:

The CSF Racing radiator is engineered specifically for the E36 chassis, providing direct bolt-on fitment using factory mounting points. No cutting, drilling, or modifications are required. The radiator uses the factory hose connections and mounting locations for straightforward installation.
