Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the CSF 3940 radiator, ensure the inlet and outlet hose connections match the 1 1/2 inch diameter specifications and are positioned correctly (inlet on the right, outlet on the left). Verify that the radiator core dimensions fit within the engine bay space, considering the 27 inch width and 25 5/16 inch length. Properly bleed the cooling system after installation to prevent air pockets and ensure optimal coolant flow. This radiator does not include a radiator cap, so reuse the existing cap or source a compatible replacement.
