Over repeated thermal cycles, engine vibration and continuous pressure fluctuations cause the nylon plastic to turn brittle, leading to micro-cracking at the inlet neck and tank seams. Additionally, the restricted single-row OEM core struggles to dissipate adequate BTU volume during severe duty cycles, stop-and-go driving, or towing with the 3.0L V6, causing rapid heat soak and dangerous coolant temperature spikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis drop-in performance upgrade features an all-aluminum crossflow construction built with 2 mm thick AA5052 aircraft-grade aluminum end tanks and 100% precision TIG welds, completely eliminating fail-prone plastic and crimped seals. The vacuum-brazed 3-row core measures 27-5\/8 in x 18-1\/16 in with cooling rows spaced 3\/8 in apart and a high-density 14-16 fins-per-inch (FPI) pitch, maximizing surface area for rapid heat transfer. Complete with an OEM-style brass petcock drain, 1.25 in inlet, and 1.5 in outlet, it ensures maximum fluid velocity and structural rigidity.\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;\"\u003e2001-2007 Ford Escape (Automatic Transmission)\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;\"\u003e3.0L Duratec 30 V6 \/ CD2 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;\"\u003e201 hp \/ 196 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Numbers \/ Cross Reference\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eCU2307, DPI 2307, RAD2307, 8012307, 6L8Z8005LA, YL8Z8005JA, YL8Z8005KB, YL8Z8005LB, AJ0315200, AJ0315200A, FO3010138, YF4715200\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFord Escape:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2001-2007 (3.0L V6 Duratec Automatic Transmission Only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Does not fit 2.0L I4 or 2.3L I4 engine models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Ford SUV Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to handle utility demands and prolonged highway commuting, this cooling assembly ensures your Duratec 3.0L maintains safe operating parameters whether hauling gear or idling in summer traffic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50417253318904,"sku":"DS-EZFX68OGA","price":229.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-for-ford-escape-2001-2007-3-0l-automatic-1.jpg?v=1788333219","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/performance-radiator-for-ford-escape-2001-2007-3-0l-automatic","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
