If you're diving into a serious cooling upgrade, you can't go wrong with a CSF radiator. I've been around the block with different radiators, and CSF really stands out. They’ve got a massive lineup—over 3,200 applications covering everything from Acura to Volkswagen. No matter if you're rocking a Copper-Brass setup or an All-Aluminum model, CSF has got you covered with parts that match the original equipment in both style and materials.
What really impresses me is the quality. CSF has been in the game for over 50 years, and they’ve sold more than 30 million units worldwide. That’s not just a number; it shows they know what they’re doing. Their radiators are engineered to meet high-performance standards and are even wind tunnel tested to ensure they can handle the heat. Seriously, these things are built to last.
Let’s talk about the construction. The tanks are made from virgin-grade engineered plastic resins that are glass-filled for extra strength and durability. Plus, the gaskets are crafted from special grade EPDM rubber, which can take the heat—up to -120 degrees Fahrenheit. And you can trust that these radiators won’t let you down; each one is leak tested at 150% of operating pressure before it leaves the factory. That’s peace of mind right there.
In terms of specs, this is a crossflow radiator with a single row design. The core measures 28 3/4 inches long, 19 inches wide, and 1 1/4 inches thick, all made from aluminum. The tanks are plastic, and the inlet and outlet locations are thoughtfully placed on the lower passenger and driver sides, both with a diameter of 1 1/2 inches. It's designed to fit perfectly in the Ford Flex from 2013 to 2019 and the Lincoln MKT for the same years.
One tip: when you're swapping out your radiator, don’t forget to check the old pressure cap for wear. It’s a small detail that can save you from future headaches.
So if you're looking for a solid radiator that combines performance with reliability, give CSF a shot. You won’t be disappointed.
