No issues at all with the all-aluminum CSF 2969 radiator in 100 degree temps, high humidity and the A/C running.

Happy Holidays To All!
Well I finally got around to doing this conversion! My Sister was Diagnosed with Breast Cancer and had to have Surgery, She spent many months in the Hospital. Drs almost killed Her! She's alive, but no well.
This was very easy to do. it fit like a glove, No adapters for hoses needed, just a heat gun.
The only problem is Relocating wiper fluid Tank, Even able to use the original shroud, just centered it. Cools like Winter Breeze! Thanks to all. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Good to know. have you decided where you are going to put the fluid tank yet? Will it just hang on the original shroud like it used to?

Hope your sister sees a complete recovery. Give her a hug from me.

Hello everyone, I have a question I just bought a 1998 dodge ram 2500 5.9 v8 it has 91k on the dash, I went to start it this morning but was getting nothing but clicking, it was 25 degrees faringite, but I don't think it would affect it, any tips? When I bought it and drove it home for over an hour it started and ran fine the entire time although that day it was about 56 degrees faringite.
