Product Release! Mishimoto Peformance Aluminum Radiator for Ford 6.4L Powerstroke!

2008–2010 Ford F-250 with 6.4L Powerstroke

The Ford F-250 with 6.4L Powerstroke engine is an awesome truck with a lot of potential. Many people like to use them as work trucks, and others like to build them for racing. Unfortunately, the factory cooling system isn’t always up to the task when pushing these trucks to the limits. The engineers at Mishimoto recognized this issue and began working on a solution to help solve your cooling concerns. The result was the Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator.

The Mishimoto Aluminum Radiator requires no modification and is a direct fit into the F-250. It even comes with factory-style and CNC-machined, quick-disconnect fittings that work perfectly with the factory coolant hoses. The radiator was also designed with all-aluminum end tanks that are TIG welded to the brazed aluminum core, for durability and longevity.

That's pretty sweet. I have your radiator in my truck also and I havnt really noticed any difference in temps. I was also wondering why aren't the weld qualitys up to par with your competition? I noticed on my radiator and the one you just showed in the picture the visual quality of the weld is poor at best.

We have actually received many compliments about our welds on our products, and have a very high standard of quality control with our products. The radiator pictured is actually machine welded for precision and repeatability. So I am not sure what you dislike about the welds. I apologize that you were not satisfied with the welds on your radiator, and if you ever have any issues, please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to help. All of our products come with a lifetime warranty because we stand behind the quality of our products and their ability to last.

I didn't notice anything bad about the welds pictured above, and that is what I do for a living. Granted I'm looking from a dirty cell phone screen, but idk what ones your complaining about?

My complaint with the welds is that they are not uniform at all the radiator is more of a show piece than anything if they are machine welds I would say the machine needs some adjustment. I'm a welder by trade so I guess my standards on weld quality is a bit higher than others, I will try to post a pic of what I would expect it to look like

Ya the whips aren't spaced perfect, but it doesn't look terrible. I have seen better of course. But I wouldn't complain about it, depending on the price of it.

Hurry up and place your orders if you haven't already done so, as these will be flying off the shelves!

Hi guys, I just wanted to give you an update. We received another shipment of these radiators today and they are in stock and ready to ship. More orders are shipping out today!

Also, I wanted to give everyone who has not yet ordered a heads up. Due to the high cost of manufacturing such an intricate product, we are increasing the price of our 6.4L radiator on Dec. 1. The price will increase to $945. As always, our radiator and all our products will continue to have our lifetime warranty so I can guarantee it is worth the peace of mind. That being said – I did want to give you guys the heads up so you know the price increase is coming. The radiators are in stock now, so any orders from now until the end of November will get the lower price!

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Tyler

Hey guys, wanted to let you know that I won't be active on the forums until Monday. I am headed home to Michigan for the holidays. I hope all of you have a great Thanksgiving!

In the meantime, check out this picture I snagged of some awesome dyno testing we had going on in the shop! We have a cool video about the testing coming out soon, so keep an eye out!

This isn't a question...but rather a comment on this...since I was told by a well known diesel shop that the radiator would be delivered at the end of last week, to which then it was scheduled to be installed... I find it very concerning that your company lied to this shop by saying the radiator would be delivered then...and now your company changes story to them to mid December and changed their story again to mid January for the next shipment and pay more...mmmm right. I realize to you at Mishimoto, I'm a no one, that's for sure...but what's a guy to do to get a straight answer of when I personally should receive a radiator that has been backordered for this long. By the way, I hope since I've had this on order for quite some time, that the old price will be withheld.

I'm just ready to drive my truck again without wasting $ pouring coolant on the ground..

I apologize for any miscommunications that occurred between our company and you/the shop you're referring to. We never intended to mislead or misinform anyone about these radiators. They are simply very popular, and many people have placed orders for them. The orders are being processed in the order in which they were received. If you placed your order before December 1st, then you will be receiving the original price that you were quoted. Please let me know if you have any more questions or concerns, as I would be happy to help.

Thanks,
Tyler

Added 1/2 gallon of coolant yesterday, no big deal though, right... Ford brand coolant is cheap.

So, PM me if you'd like... I'd really appreciate a straight answer of what the actual delivery date should be.

Sorry for derail, continue chest beating of 6.0 intercooler testing in radiator thread.

Well I haven't received a PM yet...surely you could see where my order stacks in the grand scheme of everyone else's orders and give me a ballpark idea of when it would ship, right?

Hopefully the lack of reply is due to everyone too busy with their hands tig welding these radiators together...
