Continuous heat cycling and cooling system pressurization degrade the composite plastic, causing it to become brittle and crack at the inlet and outlet necks or leak along the crimp seams. Additionally, the standard single-row core suffers from heat soak during heavy towing, straining the integrated engine oil and transmission coolers and risking elevated fluid temperatures across the \u003cstrong\u003eVortec\u003c\/strong\u003e drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis heavy-duty unit is engineered with an all-aluminum crossflow construction and precision TIG-welded tanks, completely eliminating failure-prone plastic and crimped seams. Featuring a high-density 3-row core measuring 34 inches between tanks by 17-1\/4 inches high, it provides a massive increase in cooling surface area and fluid capacity compared to standard single-row units. Integrated internal heat exchangers accommodate both passenger-side transmission fluid lines and driver-side engine oil lines, preserving critical lubricant viscosities under severe duty cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 x 3-Row All-Aluminum Crossflow Radiator (34-Inch Core Width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100 style=\" border-collapse: collapse border: solid font-size: min-width:\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2008-2013 GMC Sierra\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eVortec (4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L Gen IV V8) \/ GMT900\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e295–367 hp \/ 305–380 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eCU2370, 2370, REA41-13029A, 22840116, 52486594, 52487603, 25811504, 15841570, 20935856, 15143107\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2013 GMC Sierra 4.8L V8 (34-inch core)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2013 GMC Sierra 5.3L V8 (34-inch core)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2008-2009 GMC Sierra 6.0L V8 (34-inch core)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2011-2013 GMC Sierra 6.0L V8 (34-inch core)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions \u0026amp; Fitment Warnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the GMT900 Sierra?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a direct fit for the 2008-2013 GMC Sierra equipped with \u003cstrong\u003eVortec\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.8L, 5.3L, and 6.0L V8 engines. \u003cstrong\u003eThis unit does not fit 2010 GMC Sierra 1500 6.0L models, nor will it fit models equipped with the optional 28-inch radiator core.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow do I confirm this fits my Sierra before ordering?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the core width between the side tanks to verify your truck has the 34-inch core rather than the smaller 28-inch configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe GMC Heavy-Duty Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for dependable towing and demanding job sites, this all-aluminum core ensures maximum thermal resilience and prevents catastrophic overheating when your truck is working hardest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67563020255480,"sku":"DS-EMDSTEYNI","price":168.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/radiator-for-gmc-sierra-2008-2013-4-8l-5-3l-6-0l-1.jpg?v=1790999282","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/radiator-for-gmc-sierra-2008-2013-4-8l-5-3l-6-0l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
