At that time, did multiple other PMs and upgrades which included do88 coolers.
My trusted performance shop did the work with no reported cooler(s) install/fitment issues of any kind; included rad, oil, PS.

Cooling system specific PMs/upgrades:
[may as well to avoid related 'redos' ]
  • System flush; now running w/Red Line SuperCool coolant
  • Do88 rad
  • Thermostat; OE
  • Water pump; OE
  • Fan/shroud assy; OE
  • Rogue Engineering silicone hose kit
TBD - What/How questions remains for future do88 rad drain/flush...until then

So far, do88 rad performing as expected - - "no runs, drips, errors"
