Product Details

The Frostbite FB255 is a high-performance aluminum radiator engineered to deliver superior cooling capacity for demanding applications up to 1000+ horsepower. This 3-row design features aircraft-quality aluminum construction throughout the core, fittings, and tanks, providing up to 30% weight savings compared to traditional copper/brass radiators while maintaining exceptional durability.

Key Features:

  • 100% TIG welded (brazed) seams for leak-proof reliability
  • High-density core with 16 fins per inch for maximum cooling surface area and efficiency
  • Polished top and tanks deliver a custom show-quality appearance
  • Includes Frostbite high-performance 16 lb. radiator cap for optimal system pressure
  • Billet aluminum filler neck and OEM-style brass petcock drain
  • Aircraft-grade aluminum construction for superior strength-to-weight ratio
  • Supports high-horsepower builds and extreme cooling demands

This direct-fit radiator combines race-proven engineering with show-car aesthetics, making it ideal for performance builds, street rods, and custom applications that demand both form and function. The lightweight aluminum construction reduces front-end weight while the increased fin density ensures consistent operating temperatures even under extreme conditions.
