CSF All-Aluminum High-Performance Radiator for BMW E36 M3 / 3-Series (Part #3054)

Description

The CSF #3054 high-performance radiator is designed specifically for BMW E36 M3 and 3-Series models from 1992 to 1999, offering exceptional cooling efficiency for street and racing applications. Crafted with over 50 years of experience, CSF’s all-aluminum radiator features a 2-row core with a 42mm thickness, incorporating innovative B-Tube technology for superior heat transfer and durability. The B-Tube design replaces traditional oval tubes with carefully formed “B” shapes, brazed over the seam for a stronger, lighter, and more efficient tube that increases the heat transfer surface area by approximately 15%. This dual liquid laminar flow ensures optimal coolant movement, reducing engine temperatures under high-performance conditions. The radiator also utilizes ultra-efficient multi-louvered fins, precisely aligned for maximum airflow and heat dissipation, tested extensively in wind-tunnel environments to ensure maximum efficiency. Designed as a “Drop-In Fit,” this radiator installs directly into the OEM mounting points without modifications, accepting all factory components including quick-connect hoses, the AC condenser, mounting brackets, and fan shroud. CNC machined brackets and fittings provide a perfect fit and long-lasting durability, complemented by an all-aluminum race-style drain plug for quick maintenance. The smooth satin finish enhances the appearance while resisting corrosion and wear. Whether you’re upgrading for enhanced daily driving or competitive motorsports, this radiator delivers reliable cooling performance, making it an essential component for high horsepower builds and race vehicles. Installation is straightforward for qualified technicians, but it is recommended to consult the vehicle’s repair manual or professional installers for optimal results.
