Radiateur moteur - 911 / 930 turbo 65-89

Description

The original Behr Cooler was designed back in the 1960s and definitely shows its age at this point. Original coolers can be cleaned and refurbished but there is good chance they will start leaking after cleaning. The cleaning process doesn't cause leaks, but it can remove the gunk that has kept the original from showing the leak beforehand. However, the core is not the only source of leaks. The base plate that mount to the block can become slightly warped causing the seals to not seat correctly. The old original coolers aren't the only issue though. CSF has gotten many first hand reports of brand new OE coolers leaking within a few months of installation. It's time for a modern solution to this vintage design.
While the original design was effective at the time, they have not aged well. On top of that, there have been no updates to the design and original replacement units can be hard to come by. When the CSF 911 was being built, CSF realized this was a much needed part for the air-cooled community and set out to design something special.
The cores of the CSF units utilize a modern and robust tube and fin design that has higher flow, less pressure drop, and is more durable than the original core design. Because the base plate of the coolers is also a common problem area, CSF wanted upgrade this area as much as possible. Instead of the original cast design, the CSF coolers use a CNC machined billet aluminum plate. This offers a perfectly flat mounting surface which is both stronger and more resistant to warping over time. In addition, the CSF #8242 for the 911 comes with two stainless steel fittings for both pre and post 1973 models.
