    NEW V8R Slimline Radiator

    We are proud to announce the release of our new radiator. We've teamed up with Fluidyne a leader in racing and high performance cooling systems. Together we've designed an extremely efficient and low profile cooling system specifically for LS conversions.

    The T-3x core is a new FLUIDYNE design which was developed to provide the maximum amount of heat rejection in applications with less than 400 sq. inches of core surface available and where core depth was critical to assure spacing would accommodate a good electric fan and shroud.

    The T-3x core is a triple-row core, constructed with our high performance 5mm air fin in lieu of the traditional 7-8mm air fin and 5/8” flat tube.The 5mm air fin allows us to pack additional rows of water tube in each core… essentially providing the cooling performance of a 20% larger core area.

    This new core [called the Slimline core] with our new Slimline 5/8” tube, measures only 2” in overall depth
    Additionally, the Slimline core is capable of handling significantly higher internal water pressure than traditional radiators with 1” or 1.25” water tubes. The Slimline core is rated at 40 PSI burst pressure so installation of a high pressure radiator cap [28-32 PSI] is recommended which will increase the boiling point of the radiator water from 212 degrees to 230 degrees.

    Do they have anything for the Miatas with stock or FI engines?

    If there is enough interest we can. The stock fans would supply enough CFM to work with this core for FI cars. This same core is used in 800hp FI BMW.
