Product Information

Purpose-built aluminum radiator for an S54 engine swap into the E36 or E46 chassis. The core height is reduced so two race-spec oil coolers (CSF #8240 and #8032) can mount underneath in a factory-style location, and the included brackets adjust to fit both, with a separate set of brackets for an electric-fan conversion to a single 16-inch SPAL fan. The 2-row 42mm core runs CSF's B-Tube technology and 6.5mm multi-louvered fins, built from fully TIG-welded aluminum with an all-aluminum race-style drain plug and CNC-machined fittings. Two top covers (black and satin) are included for a clean OEM+ finish.

Matched the original on my car

I bought this after looking at the dimensions and application notes. The supplied part matched what I had ordered. The fan shroud and hose alignment were the main things I watched. It met my expectations.

Ann Rodriguez
Decent build quality

Had the car apart already, so I replaced this at the same time. I had to work around some tight spaces, but that was more about the vehicle than the part. Would consider this brand again for another repair.

Nothing fancy, works well

Easy enough to fit

This ended up being the part I went with. The first thing I checked was the hose connections, and everything looked consistent with the listing.
