Default DeWitts Stimulus Group Purchase

We know money is tight and we thought it would help to offer our annual GP now instead of the usual year end. In case you never saw this, here is how it works.

1. You get 10% discount off any radiator or combination kit
2. Free shipping to 48 states
3. You must purchase from the website to receive this special
4. Enter the letters CFGP somewhere in your name line
IE John CFGP Doe

International customers are eligible to receive the discount but must pay freight. Our order form is designed for USA address format but you can fudge the real address into the fields and just pick Michigan for the state.

NOTE: The website has automatic order acknowledgement and this will not show the discounted price or the free shipping. DO NOT CALL TO QUESTION THIS! We will ID all orders by the CFGP and apply the discount on our end, you will not be charged the acknowledge amount.

Sale ends October 31, 2008

You won't be disappointed. I was one of the first to get Tom's EOC C5 radiators. It's been doing it's job for several years now.

Tom,

I want to purchase a rad with oil cooler. Can you please explain the application difference with the right and left side oil coolers. Why would I use one over the other. I run an normally aspirated LS2 403 stroker with LT's should that make a difference. My car is a 98 C5 convertible. Also, what do I need to connect the oil cooler and do you sell the pieces?

Thanks,

Kevin

Sam exact questions that I popped in to ask. I already have a DeWetts radiator without an oil cooler.

The left side will allow your oil to heat up faster since that is the hot side of the radiator. Good for the street. The right side EOC will cool better since it is being cooled by water that has already transferred heat. I can tell you that I have no problems with the left side oil cooler keeping my temps below 260 running hard on a road course during the summer. I'm not making your power but am in the ~430 rwhp range.

Tom sold me everything as a kit. No additional parts needed.

Out of all the mods that I have done to my car (they are many) this is the one mod that I never second guessed or had any regrets over.

If anyone would have an automatic trans, you are limited to getting the eoc on the left only because the toc is on the right. If you have a manual trans, then you have an option. The left side is a cleaner plumbing job because of the shorter length and the hose kits cost less.

Here are the kits http://www.dewitts.com/pages/categor...ts.asp?catID=5

I just wanted to get this back up ttt because each year we do this and without fail two weeks after the sale someone writes and asks if we ever have sales. Remember we do this once only per year, so act now.

It does if you would allow ups ground service which I think takes about 2-3 weeks to get there.

Bummer! Not to worry though; Tom does this every year I think.

Mine fit like a charm and is working fine. You can't go wrong if you can wait a little longer.
