Need to Replace all Radiators / Intercooler Heat Exchangers, which should I choose?

Like the title says, I need to replace all of my radiators/intercooler’s, after an incident on the track this weekend.

Does one company make a superior product to the others?

I see that weapon X and Afco have all three intercoolers/Radiator in their packages Whereas ProSpeed and C and R racing only make one.

From the title i knew this couldn't be good. Sorry to hear it GMG. It looks like you already have done a lot of info gathering. I know @travislambert was looking into the C&R Racing radiator. Have you definitely confirmed that's the only unit they make for the Camaro? Either way Sir, good luck...

Thanks guys, I wasn’t the one driving the car when the crash happened, that was probably my first mistake, The person who was driving it is fine thankfully And he has graciously accepted to pay for the repair costs

I think the car will be fine and very salvageable, but just to be safe it’s going to get a frame check very soon and then we will go from there.

On the positive side, I was able to get a new personal best by about half a second over my previous best haha!

I’ll reach out to Travis

Dang that’s sucks specially if you were not driving!! Did you get track insurance? They should definitely cover it.

Cautionary note: if you deviate from stock and get it all back together and find latent issues, there will be finger pointing about whether the issues are related to additional (unseen) damage, non-stock parts, etc. With multiple parties (Bill-payer, owner, vendors, GM), it could get sticky in a hurry. Sometimes crash damage isn’t as cut and dry as it appears at first pass.
