CSF 8378 Motorsport Dual-Pass Competition Radiator

Description CSF 8378 Motorsport Dual-Pass Competition Radiator

The new Motorsport Dual-Pass Radiator is the largest and most efficient cooler CSF has produced. It features a mammoth 705mm x 448mm (27×75” x 17.5”) core that is 68mm thick. The 68mm core is 24% thicker than the nearest competitor which uses a 55mm core. This means more heat transfer and thermal capacity than any other radiator on the market.

CSF’s Exclusive B-Tube Technology increases the heat transfer by approximately 15% over regular oval welded tubes. The 44 rows of 8mm super-efficient multi-louvered fins maximize airflow through the core for the best possible performance.

From the performance perspective; a dual pass core offers a great balance between optimal cooling and back pressure. By extending the coolant flow path, coolant stays in the radiator longer allowing for additional heat dissipation. While a triple pass may offer even more benefits in this regard, it also creates more resistance and in turn pressure drop. Depending on your setup, this might not be an ideal design. The dual pass design offers a nice balance between ultimate cooling performance and coolant pressure regulation.

The other benefit of the dual pass design is it places both fittings on one side of the radiator. This configuration is much easier for setting up a remote or rear mounted radiator. Builders can run the inlet and outline lines together for simpler fabrication and overall shorter coolant lines. The fans can also be clocked in 4 different positions to make wire routing easier.

To offer customers more versatility, CSF went with -20AN ORB ports that can be used with either -20AN or -16AN Fittings. Larger -20AN fittings and lines offer both a higher burst pressure limit and greater flow rate. The inlet/outlet tank also features two pre-plugged 12AN (1-1/16″-12) ORB ports. These two ports can be used to mount sensors, aid in bleeding the coolant system, connecting an expansion tank, and more. Each port/bung is located above/below the inlet and outlet fittings.

CSF designed the Motorsport Radiator to give fabricators and builders a wide variety of mounting options. Because this radiator will be mounted in different positions and orientations depending on the application, the engineers wanted to make sure there were mounting bosses for any type of setup. Each tank is equipped with four M8x1.25 mounting bosses. One on the top and bottom of each tank, and two on the sides. This allows for bolt-on mounting for any type of structural frame or cradle no matter how or where the radiator will be mounted.
