Does this radiator require any modifications to install?

No, this CSF radiator is designed as a true 'drop-in fit.' It accepts all attaching OEM components, including quick-connect hoses, the AC condenser, and mounting brackets, so no modifications are needed for installation.

What makes CSF's B-Tube Technology different from standard radiator tubes?

CSF's B-tubes are specially shaped to increase the heat transfer surface area by approximately 15% compared to regular oval tubes. This design allows for more efficient cooling within the same space, similar to having two smaller tubes instead of one large one.

What is included with this radiator?

This radiator includes the all-aluminum core with B-Tube technology, multi-louvered fins, CNC machined brackets and connections, and a race-style drain plug. You will reuse your original hoses, mounting hardware, and fan shroud.

Product Details

If you're looking to keep your 1990-2002 Mercedes-Benz 500SL or SL500 running cool, especially under demanding conditions, a high-performance radiator is a smart move. This all-aluminum radiator from CSF is built to handle the heat, whether you're cruising the street or pushing your car on the track. It's designed to replace your stock unit directly, making the upgrade straightforward.

CSF has been making radiators for over 50 years, and this one uses their exclusive B-Tube Technology. Instead of a standard oval tube, these B-tubes are shaped to increase the surface area for heat transfer by about 15%. This means more efficient cooling in the same space. They also use multi-louvered fins that are precisely aligned to maximize airflow. The core is a 2-row, 42mm design, and all the brackets and connections are CNC machined for a solid fit and durability. It's designed to accept all your original equipment, including quick-connect hoses and the AC condenser, so you can reuse your existing components.

This radiator is a true drop-in fit, meaning no modifications are needed for installation. You'll reuse your original mounting hardware and hoses. It also features a smooth satin finish and a race-style drain plug for easy servicing.
