We've sold a few units since starting this thread and have been asked a few questions via social media, e-mail, and PMs. I thought I'd answer a few of these questions below that have been asked repeatedly.
If we ever get enough interest for this radiator to get 6-8 guys to go in on a group buy, we can probably knock off a decent chunk on pricing as well, just let me know!
Where is the radiator produced?
-The core is produced by Denso in Michigan.
-The radiator was designed by myself.
-The sheet metal is cut and bent in Indiana by a leading cooling system provider for various motorsports series.
-The radiator is then assembled, welded, and pressure checked by this same company. Welding is performed by highly trained welders, the same welders that weld radiators for IndyCar, NASCAR, WRC, LMP1, etc.
Can you sell just the radiator, no fans?
-Yes, we can. We do not recommend it though as we do not have provision for mounting a fan shroud.
Can you weld on a bung for temp sensor or some other feature?
-Yes, we can. I will be doing the welding through. I also pressure test it to ensure it won't leak.
What makes the radiator so expensive?
-The core primarily. The core's cost is higher than most other radiator's ship price. We don't want to change this though as that was the goal behind this radiator, to produce something no one else offers.
-Another thing to potentially keep in mind is that adding a low profile fan shroud and fans to another radiator starts to bring the prices more in-line with our unit. Our unit is a bolt-in application with a much thinner install thickness than OEM, and higher heat rejection than OEM. There's no need to buy a fan shroud or fans, or anything!
Thanks,
Eric
