If you’re looking to keep your engine cool under pressure, you might want to check out the CSF radiator. These guys have been in the game for over 50 years, and they know a thing or two about what it takes to keep your ride from overheating. With a lineup that covers over 3,200 applications, from Acura to Volkswagen, CSF has something for pretty much every vehicle out there.
Now, let’s talk about what makes these radiators stand out. They come in various styles, whether you’re rocking a Copper-Brass setup or an All Aluminum design. The construction is solid, with OEM specified Plastic Tank-Aluminum Core that’s built to last. We’re talking about tanks made from virgin grade engineered plastic resins that are "Glass Filled" for extra strength and durability. That means you’re not just getting a radiator; you’re investing in something that can handle the heat—literally.
One of the coolest features is the high-performance “Multi-Louvered Design” fins. This isn’t just marketing fluff; these fins are the heart of the radiator, ensuring maximum cooling efficiency. And just to give you peace of mind, each unit is 100% leak tested before it leaves the factory, and they’re built to withstand 150% of operating pressure. So, you can hit the road without worrying about your coolant boiling over.
When it comes to specs, this crossflow radiator has one row and measures 18 1/4" in length, 15 5/16" in width, and 1 1/4" in thickness. The inlet is located on the upper driver side, while the outlet is on the lower passenger side, both with a diameter of 1 3/8". Plus, it features a high-efficiency plate type oil cooler that measures 10 13/16". It’s like having a little extra insurance for your engine.
These radiators are designed to fit perfectly in the Kia Forte (2014-2018) and Kia Soul (2014-2019). Just a heads up: when you’re swapping out your old radiator, take a moment to inspect the pressure cap. It’s a small detail, but it can save you from future headaches.
All in all, if you’re serious about keeping your vehicle cool and running smoothly, the CSF radiator is a solid choice. With their long-standing reputation and commitment to quality, you can trust that you’re getting something that’s built to last.
