OEM radiators utilize crimped plastic end tanks joined to a thin, single-row aluminum core. Repeated thermal cycling causes these plastic tanks to become brittle, leading to hairline cracks and coolant leaks along the inlet and outlet necks. Furthermore, the stock core volume struggles to maintain optimal coolant temperatures during sustained driving or traffic, resulting in heat soak, elevated engine temperatures, and potential head gasket failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis heavy-duty radiator re-engineers the cooling circuit using a 3-row, high-density aluminum core measuring 14.42 by 26.57 by 2.05 inches thick. Transitioning from a single-row to a 3-row internal tube architecture drastically increases the surface area for thermal transfer. This design improves fluid dynamics and airflow efficiency, resulting in a 30% increase in total cooling capacity over the factory unit. TIG-welded aluminum construction completely eliminates the weak plastic end tanks, creating a unified metal structure capable of withstanding higher system pressures. Dual 1.26-inch ports ensure unrestricted coolant flow for both manual and automatic transmission vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e1998-2004 Dodge, Chrysler Intrepid, Concorde\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eEGG 3.5L SOHC V6 \/ LH Platform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e253 hp \/ 255 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler 300M 3.5L V6 3497cc 215ci 1999-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Concorde 2.7L V6 2736cc 167ci 1998-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Concorde 3.2L V6 3200cc 197ci 1998-2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Concorde 3.5L V6 3497cc 215ci 2002-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Intrepid 2.7L V6 2736cc 167ci 1998-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Intrepid 3.2L V6 3200cc 197ci 1998-2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler Intrepid 3.5L V6 3497cc 215ci 2000-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrysler LHS 3.5L V6 3497cc 215ci 1999-2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDodge Intrepid 3.5L V6 3497cc 215ci 2000-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDodge Intrepid 2.7L V6 2736cc 167ci 1998-2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDodge Intrepid 3.2L V6 3200cc 197ci 1998-2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Compatible with both Manual (MT) and Automatic (AT) Vehicles.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Dodge \u0026amp; Chrysler Durability Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor aging full-size American sedans, maintaining consistent engine operating temperatures is non-negotiable.
