Not calling you out but this sounds like BS from CSF. The radiator is not connected directly to the motor except by two very flexible hoses. The only way I could see putting flex into the radiator is if the frame twisted under load. If that's the case I would expect that to be worse with stiffer mounts not better. Sounds likes CSF is grasping at straws. Shame cause the only other options are Mishimoto and GTM. One has huge QA/QC issues and the other is very questionable if they'll ever ship it to you.

I just installed mine on Friday so hopefully I'll have good luck.
