Cold Case Performance Aluminum Radiator Module
This module combines a lightweight aluminum radiator, electric fan(s), and a form-fitting aluminum shroud to provide maximum cooling in an easy-to-install package. The TIG-welded radiators are over 40% lighter than comparable copper-brass radiators and have all-aluminum cores with two rows of 1- to 1.25-inch diameter tubing for improved coolant flow and better overall tube-to-fin contact. Most Cold Case modules are designed as direct-fit applications of popular GM, Ford, and Chrysler cars and pickups from 1932-1993, with many options available with built-in auto transmission coolers. LS swap applications are also in stock.
