Description

The Ferrari F355 holds a special place in automotive history as one of the last truly analog modern Ferraris. Its high revving naturally aspirated V8 engine delivers a driving experience that is both raw and exhilarating. However after more than 25 years the original factory cooling components particularly the plastic end tanks have become a well known liability. Repeated heat cycles cause the plastic to become brittle leading to cracks leaks and the ever present risk of catastrophic engine failure. This Ferrari F355 radiator aluminum upgrade is the definitive solution engineered to permanently eliminate this critical flaw and preserve the heart of your classic supercar.

As with most vehicles built over two decades ago the Ferrari F355 is at the age where critical components need to be replaced. While OEM radiators are still available they can be quite expensive and many owners have been looking for a suitable upgrade for their collectable Italian supercars. A sudden leak from an aging factory radiator can lead to overheating and catastrophic engine damage turning a dream car into a nightmare. Our all aluminum Ferrari F355 radiator upgrade for the left hand side is the definitive solution engineered to provide modern cooling performance and bulletproof reliability for your classic supercar.

The original F355 OE radiators from Ferrari feature aluminum cores crimped onto plastic end tanks. While generally accepted as good quality when new this design is significantly weaker than an all aluminum TIG welded design. After more than 25 years of heat cycles this plastic becomes brittle creating a ticking time bomb that can lead to sudden coolant loss. Anyone who has restored or updated an older car knows the value of having updated parts that are as efficient and reliable as possible.

When those crimped seals fail coolant escapes and the engine begins to overheat. This is a predictable failure that is built into the design of the factory part from the very beginning. A coolant leak in a vehicle as valuable as the F355 can cause serious engine damage and the repair costs can be enormous. Our Ferrari F355 radiator aluminum upgrade addresses every one of these failure points by eliminating plastic from the construction entirely and replacing it with a fully welded aluminum structure that will never fail the same way.

Our premium TIG welded construction is built to last a lifetime. We replaced the failure prone crimped on plastic end tanks of the factory unit with 100 percent TIG welded aerospace grade aluminum tanks. This master class construction provides a robust leak proof seal that can withstand the intense pressures and temperatures of the F355’s high performance engine. The entire radiator is built from premium aluminum and dual core straps are added to increase overall strength and durability ensuring it can hold up to the demands of hard driving.

At the core of this radiator’s superior performance is a combination of industry leading technologies. Unlike the standard oval tubes found in OEM and other aftermarket radiators our design utilizes exclusive B Tube technology. This dual pass tube design creates a stronger more efficient tube that increases heat transfer by approximately 15 percent over regular tubes. This is paired with our high efficiency multi louvered fins. These ultra efficient fins are not an afterthought. They are carefully measured precisely aligned and tested to maximize airflow and achieve the highest possible heat rejection efficiency. This meticulous engineering results in a 15 to 20 percent overall improvement in cooling performance giving you the thermal headroom needed for spirited driving track days or simply navigating traffic on a hot day.

Every Ferrari F355 radiator aluminum upgrade we produce is designed manufactured and assembled entirely in house to ensure consistent quality and dependable performance. We use tools and equipment that are dedicated exclusively to aluminum work. This is a fundamental part of how we operate. Cross contamination from steel or other metals can compromise the structural integrity of an aluminum weld and we will not allow that risk in our manufacturing process. Our welders are master level craftsmen who produce welds that are as visually impressive as they are structurally sound.

This level of quality stands in direct contrast to generic aftermarket alternatives floating around on the internet. Typical unbranded models may seem tempting based on price however they are often made with low quality aluminum cores featuring fewer cooling tubes and fin rows than even the OEM unit. Our radiator is engineered to fit correctly from the start with no compromises and no shortcuts. Each radiator is finished in a hand brushed satin black coating for a clean OEM plus appearance that looks right at home in a concours quality engine bay. When you invest in our Ferrari F355 radiator aluminum upgrade you are getting a product that performs at the highest level and looks exceptional.

We laser scan and test fit so that you can be assured of the perfect fitment for all F355 models. This high performance radiator is engineered as a true plug and play drop in fit solution for the left hand side of your Ferrari F355. Our engineers used 3D scanning to create a precise model of the OEM radiator ensuring that all mounting points brackets and inlet and outlet connections are identical to the factory unit. This means absolutely no modifications are required for installation. This left side radiator is compatible with all Ferrari F355 models from 1994 to 2001 including the Berlinetta Spider GTS and F1 variants and directly replaces OEM part number 807928.

Every radiator is individually leak and pressure tested before it leaves our ISO certified facility guaranteeing a flawless product right out of the box. This commitment to quality is backed by our industry leading 5 year warranty giving you unparalleled peace of mind.
