Both inlet and outlet connections use hose clamps with a 1.38-inch diameter, facilitating secure hose attachment. The core’s fin design includes 68 fins every 4 inches with a fin wave height of 0.31 inches and a wave pitch of 3, contributing to effective airflow and heat dissipation. The radiator’s top and bottom headers measure 1.97 by 19.45 inches, providing structural integrity and compatibility with the vehicle’s cooling system.
Common Applications and Problem Solving
