DeWitts Radiator for C5Z06
C5Z06 DeWitts Radiator
Double the size of stock, with a factory fit.
I use one on my 540+ RWHP C6 and it works amazing.
I've overheated the stock one more times than I care to remember.
Keep it cool,
Mike
$545 shipped.
Happy New Year C5Zs

I can vouch for DeWitts quality. I have had one in my 70 for about 6 years now. I have never run over 200 degrees and the car always runs on the thremostat when it is moving. They make a great radiator and I would not hesitate to buy from them again when it comes time.
Good luck with the sale.

Very Nice, do you have internal oil cooler or an external? I have some great packages for externals too. Setrab makes a nice external I'm having installed. I do mostly suspension and brake installs. I leave the motor to the bigger guys.

Absolutely, I have tracked the car in 90 heat. The coolant temps never even really budged. I started my session at 200 and ended at 201. That's with compressed air in the motor and a heat soaked intercooler passing hot air over the front. Before I wanted to spend money on the external oil cooler setup I had to make sure the rad was up for the challenge. Well I have, and now the Setrab is on my car. I am glad to know I have a Dewitts protecting my investment.
For NA Motors I recommend getting the one with EOC included or doing an external Setrab oil cooler.
For FI motors I believe doing an external is the most efficient way to cool the oil. The GT1 corvettes have something like 600lb/ft of torque and use a Dewitts radiator. They use a Setrab heat exchanger that passes water to cool the oil. It looks like a long tube. DeWitts ran last year in the American Le Mans Series.
Thanks,
Mike

Absolutely, That's a little far for free shipping but I think it's around $350. You're looking at radiator A97EL
And Oil Cooler Adapter E97C
$976 Retail and I can do $925. That's the same oil cooler adapter I have on my car. Shipping overseas is around $350 I think.
PM Me your address and I can come up with an exact quote.

I have the radiator with the left side oil cooler and LPE adapter block... it fits like OEM and has made the last 2 years of HPDEs far more fun when not thinking about oil temps

The one I spoke about in my first post I already ordered and should be ready to ship within a couple days. I also can order any of them for you depending on your needs. Thanks.

Still available, guys if you wait til August he's most likely going to be three weeks out. And you won't have it when you really need it. If you order now you'll have it soon and you can take your time getting it installed or installing it yourself. Perfect timing and the price is right.
