Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Spectra Premium CU1454 Advanced Radiator - Complete Cooling Solution by Delos Montano

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I like and dislike this radiator

Bought this for a 1994 Ford F-150 pickup. GOOD NEWS: It was very cheap. It arrived quickly. It's got a lot more capacity than the original, and while I've never had any overheating issues, it's good to have more cooling capacity. This is holding water for now, so I'm optimistic this will work for me. BAD NEWS: It came with no instructions, although there was a sticker on the cooler saying to follow the instructions fully. This is a more or less universal radiator. This is not a DIRECT FIT product and had to be fitted to my truck. The original shroud couldn't be attached to this new heatsink so I had to make mounting hardware to hold it in place and clean the fan blades. It had basic bracket parts that fit my radiator bracket, but it was very different from the original, so I had to do a lot of work to install it to protect it from possible damage during use. My conclusion is that if you want a radiator that fits your car or truck, you can spend more money and get one that fits exactly like the original. This saves you a lot of time and energy.

Pros
  • Subjected to aging and endurance testing to verify performance in extreme weather conditions
Cons
  • Something else
