When it comes to keeping your engine cool, you want something that really gets the job done—enter the CSF radiator. These guys have been around for over 50 years, and they know a thing or two about radiators. With a lineup that covers over 3,200 applications, they’ve got options for just about every brand out there, from Acura to Volkswagen. Whether you’re dealing with a Copper-Brass setup or one of those All Aluminum designs, CSF has got your back with quality that matches or even exceeds what you’d find in the original equipment.
What I really appreciate about CSF is their commitment to quality. They don’t just slap these together; every radiator is built to high-performance standards. Each one is wind tunnel tested to ensure it cools effectively, so you can trust it to handle whatever heat your engine throws at it. Plus, they’re leak tested at 150% of operating pressure before they even leave the factory. That’s peace of mind right there.
Let’s talk about some of the features that make these radiators stand out. The plastic tanks are made from virgin grade engineered plastic resins, which are glass-filled for extra strength and durability. You won’t have to worry about them cracking or failing on you anytime soon. And those gaskets? They’re crafted from a special grade of EPDM rubber, able to withstand extreme temperatures—up to -120°F. That’s some serious resilience!
On top of that, the fins are designed with a high-performance multi-louvered pattern that really boosts cooling efficiency. Everything is carefully assembled, torqued, and tested during production, which is why CSF can confidently say they have the industry’s best packaging standards. They even pass a 10-foot drop test to make sure your radiator arrives in perfect condition.
Now, for the specs: this is a crossflow radiator with two rows, measuring in at 33 7/16" long, 27 1/2" wide, and 2 1/16" thick. The core is aluminum, and the tank is made of that tough plastic I mentioned earlier. The inlet is located on the upper driver side, while the outlet is on the lower passenger side, with inlet and outlet diameters of 1 13/16" and 2", respectively. It also features a high-efficiency plate-type oil cooler measuring 11 1/2".
If you’re driving a Chevrolet Silverado 2500 or 3500 from 2007 to 2016, or a GMC Sierra 2500 or 3500 from 2011 to 2016, this radiator is a perfect fit. Just a heads up—when you’re swapping out your radiator, don’t forget to check the old radiator pressure cap for any signs of wear.
In short, if you’re serious about keeping your ride cool and running smoothly, a CSF radiator is a solid choice. You’ll appreciate the quality and performance, and your engine will thank you for it!
