04 05 Cadillac CTS V Manual Cooling Radiator 19129908
ordered this one from this seller on ebay thepartsladi just received it a couple days ago. The best communication i have ever had from the bay, that part number is the latest replacement for the V oem, upgraded from the bad ones..
was $245 plus $12.50 shipped to my door.
hope that helps,

i understand, but once you replace 3 radiators, you will understand, lol and it has nothing to do with being a race car, it's quality and durability and the plus is that it is an awesome piece

In my case, I frequently saw 210-215 degrees F in Houston, Texas stop and go traffic with A/C. With the Ron Davis installed I never see anything over 195 degrees (no matter what), which I believe is thermostat threshold.
Added note: I am also experiencing reduced oil temperatures.

Darkman,
Do you have any photos of your installation that you could post up?
I'm interested in the fan shroud fitment on the driver's side (especially in the bolt area) as I have minimal clearance there due to a larger MAF and intake tube. The area indicated on the edited copy of your photo shows where the issue is.

Yes it has a much larger cooling capacity. I suspect that Ron Davis Racing could give you a percentage. The pictures give some indication.
