DESCRIPTION

UNLEASH THE FULL POTENTIAL OF YOUR C8

For over 20 years, DeWitts Radiator has set the standard in Corvette cooling systems, driven by a commitment to innovation, durability, and race-proven performance. The C8 Corvette is a masterpiece of engineering—but in demanding conditions, even the best machines need an edge. That’s why DeWitts has engineered a complete three-unit Direct Fit™ high-performance radiator package specifically for 2020–Present C8 Corvettes equipped with LT2, LT6, or LT7 engines.

 

Each radiator features high-efficiency, multi-louvered fin cores with increased coolant volume, delivering significantly improved heat rejection compared to OE units. The cores are constructed by hand, with US born aluminum and an optimized fin pitch to maximize airflow and cooling performance under extreme load. Designed as a true bolt-in upgrade, they feature Direct Fit™ OEM-style mounting and fully compatible hose and sensor connections.

 

Whether you're attacking corners at the track or pushing your Corvette to its limits on the open road, consistent cooling is essential for sustaining power and ensuring long-term reliability. This high-performance radiator package delivers the thermal management needed to keep temperatures in check under any driving condition.

WHY ADD AN AUXILIARY RADIATOR

 

1.       Prevent Heat Soak During Track Use
The C8, especially in spirited or track driving, can experience high under hood and engine bay temperatures. An auxiliary radiator helps dissipate that excess heat before it causes performance loss or potential damage.

 

2.      Increase Cooling Capacity Without Full System Overhaul
Adding a left rear (driver-side) auxiliary radiator boosts cooling efficiency

 

3.     Support Engine Modifications or Power Adders
If you’ve added power (e.g., turbo, supercharger, or tune), the factory cooling system may no longer be sufficient. An auxiliary radiator provides extra thermal margin to support increased output.

 

4.     Improve Longevity and Reliability
Heat is the enemy of reliability. Extra cooling helps protect critical systems like the transmission, engine, and cooling circuits from heat-related stress and premature wear.

 

5.     OEM Integration with Aftermarket Performance
DeWitts offers this auxiliary radiator with OEM-style fitment, meaning you get the performance benefits with a factory-like install.
