Barely any if you clamp or plug the hoses when you switch. Have a qt on hand you’ll be fine.I need to do mine before the summer and been following this thread for along time.
How much trans fluid do you lose when replacing the radiator?
0 ounces from the outlet. I pinched the line with needle nose vice grips and shoved a sharpie up the poop chute as soon as i disconnected. I took the nubs from the new radiator and put them on the old radiator when disconnecting in case any would drip out.I need to do mine before the summer and been following this thread for along time.

Need help from the community. Ordered the CSF from Summit Racing as others have done. The box showed up pretty banged up and clearly was repackaged with additional packing tape. I called Summit who offered to take it back but asked that I test it first. My question is what damage do I look for on the radiator itself and/or how do I test. This will be my first radiator job so complete novice here.

CSF rads meets or exceed oem radiators in terms of quality. Never had any issues with any I’ve ever installed.Don't know if there's a "best" other than OEM, but I just replaced mine with a Koyorad A2282.
Everything fit as intended.

Good to hear!Just installed my CSF this past Friday along with new upper and lower hoses and the complete heater tee assemblies. So far, so good. I still need to add the foam strip across the top, but that's really it. Not 100% sure what the foam does though. Drove it hard over the weekend and experienced zero issues (188-190 steady on the temps).

I just called Summit and requested a return and replacement sent. Fins were bent and given my inexperience with radiators and the pristine pictures others have shown of CSF radiators I didn't want to deal with the uncertainty. New radiator is on order and Summit said to hang onto the old one for 10 days and then junk it if I don't hear back from them.Did you end up having to return it for
being damaged during shipping?
