Flexalite Extruded Core Radiator and Electric Fan 1973-1986 Jeep CJ LS Engine
Flex-A-Lite® Extruded Core Technology is the future of performance aluminum radiators, replacing multi-core radiators with a new advanced design. Flex-A-Lite® Extruded Core Radiators provide significantly better cooling with a stronger, more durable and lighter design.
This direct-fit radiator is engineered to bolt into a 1973-1986 Jeep CJ with an LS engine swap. No cutting or drilling is required for installation, and the radiator will mount using the factory location and equipment. A fully-shrouded Black Magic S-Blade electric fan comes mounted to the radiator. The fan moves 3,000 cfm of airflow and includes an Adjustable Thermostatic Controller, making this a complete unit, ready to install. Radiator includes 22-24 lbs. cap and train petcock.
Key features and benefits of the Flex-A-Lite® Extruded Tube Core Radiators include:
•Increased contact area between the coolant and aluminum tubes for better heat rejection and cooling.
•A flat surface on which to braze the cooling fins, maximizing the contact between the tubes and fins for increased heat rejection and better cooling.
•The cooling fins have been designed with louver patterns cut into them to direct airflow, improving heat rejection and cooling.
•Wind-tunnel testing has shown that this Extruded Tube Core technology is significantly more efficient for cooling than standard tube radiators.
•The Flex-A-Lite® Extruded Tube Core Radiators are significantly stronger and have a 100-psi burst rating.
•The Flex-A-Lite® Extruded Tube Core Radiators include a corner subhead, reinforcing the cooling tube to header connection, an area prone to cracking and leaking in other brands of aluminum radiators.
