Most places will require original sales receipt to verify it was purchased by you and not used from somewhere else

Yes they are lifetime but only if you're the original purchaser(says your name on the receipt). I'm not sure if they're worth it but I do have their radiator/dual fan setup in my fox but I haven't driven it to see how it does. I hope it lasts longer than my Fluidyne did.

As everyone has mentioned, you must be the original purchaser.

Where did you buy it? Some sites just check your purchase history for warranty some places keep your phone # in the system without receipt needed for warranty.

Bringing this back for comment and possible future help....
I mentioned this in another thread but didn't want to steal the thread.
I bought the SVE 3 row from LMR about a year and 8 months ago. I had to return the first one because it leaked after 8 months. They replaced it with no issue by looking at my purchase history like mentioned above. Now, after a year, this one is leaking as well. They are shipping me another after the same process. However, now my third one (coming today), I have zero confidence in the long life of this radiator....hope it proves me wrong.
I see Neight had the same issue with the Fluidyne, and that cost $200 more than the SVE!! Are there any dependable 3 core radiators out there that will last?? Mishimoto? Champion? Im using it with a Flexalite Black Magic Extreme electric fan.

I've had a fluidyne for almost 10 years, never leaked.

Summit's Performance Fit aluminum radiators are good. Part number SUM-380451. Call and make sure they're made in the USA. If you don't have an AOD, you can find a universal house brand radiator that's cheaper and will still fit. Non USA radiators will always leak. Buy American while you still can.

thanks for the info. Not a bad price at $290, however, 3.125" overall thickness?? Damn.

It fits tight, but fine in a fox. If you want to save money and not pay for the AOD cooler, this model also fits http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-380477 Just call and make sure they're made in the USA. The summit housebrand parts that are made in the USA are quality. Non USA parts I wouldn't touch.
