Radiators for your vehicle or UTA and Motorcycle Collection

What This Category Covers

The Radiators category groups together every core and heat exchanger needed to keep coolant and charge air temperatures under control. Coverage spans direct fit OE replacement plastic tank radiators, all aluminum performance radiators with thicker cores, dual pass heat exchangers for supercharged applications, A/C evaporators, and universal heat exchanger kits with integrated fans for custom builds.

OE Replacement Radiators

Direct fit plastic tank and aluminum radiators from CSF restore factory cooling capacity on trucks, SUVs, and daily driven platforms without any modification to factory mounting points or hose routing.

Performance Aluminum Radiators

All aluminum radiators from Mishimoto and CSF use thicker cores and improved tank design to handle sustained boost, towing, or track use where a stock radiator falls short of cooling demand.

Heat Exchangers for Supercharged Platforms

Heat exchangers cool the charge air or intercooler circuit on supercharged and turbocharged engines, and are common upgrades on Trackhawk, Hellcat, and exotic platforms with factory or aftermarket forced induction.

Trackhawk and Hellcat Heat Exchangers

Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat models rely on a dedicated heat exchanger to cool the supercharger intercooler circuit, and upgraded units improve consistency under repeated hard runs.

Exotic and Supercar Heat Exchangers

McLaren MP4-12C, 650S, 675LT, 570S, 600LT, 720S, and 765LT models use side mounted heat exchangers that are frequently replaced or upgraded as part of track preparation and cooling system maintenance.

Diesel Truck Radiators

Heavy duty radiators for Ford Power Stroke, RAM Cummins, and Chevrolet Duramax diesel trucks are built to manage higher coolant volume and towing load, with BladeRunner Street Series and heavy duty core options for repeated high load operation.

Ford and RAM Diesel Radiators

BladeRunner Street Series radiators for Ford F-250 and F-350 Power Stroke and RAM Cummins diesel trucks provide improved cooling capacity for towing and performance tuned diesel applications.

Sports Car and Import Radiators

Porsche 911, Porsche 964 and 993, Nissan GT-R and GTS R33, and BMW Z3 platforms use compact high performance radiator designs that require precise core sizing and mounting point accuracy for proper fitment.

Porsche and GT-R Cooling

CSF produces application specific left, right, and center radiators for the current generation Porsche 911 lineup along with all aluminum radiators for Nissan GT-R and GTS platforms.

Universal and Custom Fit Radiators

Universal heat exchanger kits with integrated brushless fans support custom swaps, race builds, and applications without a direct fit factory replacement option, giving builders flexibility on mounting and core sizing.

How to Choose the Correct Radiator

• Confirm the exact year, make, model, trim, and engine before ordering
• Match core material (aluminum vs OE plastic tank) to your cooling and budget needs
• Verify whether your platform requires a separate heat exchanger for a supercharger or intercooler circuit
• Check core thickness against your engine bay clearance, especially on swapped platforms
• Confirm inlet and outlet hose diameters match your existing or upgraded hose kit
• Verify transmission cooler line fittings if your radiator includes an integrated cooler
• Match fan shroud mounting points to the radiator you are installing
• Confirm whether a cap, sensor, or sending unit needs to transfer from the old radiator
• Check diesel radiator core size against towing and horsepower goals
• Verify color and finish if the radiator is visible through an aftermarket grille or shroud

Common Questions

What is the difference between an OE replacement and a performance radiator?

An OE replacement radiator matches factory core size and material to restore stock cooling capacity, while a performance radiator typically uses an all aluminum core with more surface area to handle higher heat loads from boost, towing, or track use.

Do I need a heat exchanger in addition to a radiator?

Supercharged platforms like the Trackhawk and Durango Hellcat use a separate heat exchanger to cool the supercharger intercooler circuit, which is independent from the main engine coolant radiator.

Will an aluminum radiator fit without modification?

Direct fit aluminum radiators are designed to bolt into factory mounting points and use factory hose routing, though always confirm fitment against your exact year, make, and model before ordering.

Do diesel trucks need a larger radiator for towing?

Heavy duty towing increases sustained coolant temperature, so a radiator with more core surface area or a heavy duty core helps diesel trucks maintain safe operating temperature under load.

Can a universal heat exchanger kit work on any vehicle?

Universal heat exchanger kits are designed for custom installs and swaps where no direct fit option exists, but they require the builder to fabricate mounting and confirm fan clearance.

How do I know if my radiator is failing?

Common signs include coolant leaks, overheating under load, visible core damage, or a coolant reservoir that requires frequent refilling without an obvious external leak.

Should I replace hoses when replacing a radiator?

Replacing aging rubber hoses at the same time as the radiator is recommended since hose failure is a common cause of coolant loss and can strand a vehicle shortly after a radiator replacement.

Are exotic car radiators harder to source?

Radiators for platforms like McLaren and Porsche require precise OE matching since these applications often use multiple radiators or heat exchangers per side, and CSF publishes verified fitment data for these platforms.

What is the benefit of a thicker radiator core?

A thicker core increases surface area for heat rejection, which helps maintain lower coolant temperatures during sustained boost, towing, or repeated hard driving compared to a thinner factory core.

Do you carry radiator caps and sensors?
