Construction & Design:
The Mishimoto Y-pipe is crafted from premium cast aluminum, chosen for its excellent heat dissipation properties and resistance to cracking under thermal stress. Each unit undergoes CNC machining to achieve precise fitment and smooth surfaces that promote efficient coolant flow. The TIG welding process used in assembly ensures a strong, durable bond that withstands the pressures and vibrations typical in heavy-duty truck applications.
The clear anodized finish not only protects the aluminum from corrosion but also adds a refined look under the hood. This robust construction significantly improves the cooling system’s reliability compared to the original plastic component, which can become brittle and fail over time.
Installation & Fitment:
Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, the Mishimoto Aluminum Coolant Y-Pipe fits the following Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models equipped with the 6.7L Cummins engine from 2013 to 2014:
