It is widely known that the OEM super-charger cooling system on 6th generation Camaro ZL1's is inadequate. Even in stock form, the OEM system has a hard time keeping IAT's cool in hot climates or racing conditions. This problem is exponentially worse once you start turning up the boost, leaving little time before your ECM starts to pull timing which leaves a lot of power on the table, instead of at the tire where it belongs.
Griffin Motorsports takes a multi-stage multi-faceted approach to this solution offering a cost-savings package for every budget and power level.
STAGE.I Super-Charger Cooling Package Includes:
- GMS High Flow Impact Bar + Tow Hook Coupler
- Left and Right Black Aluminum Air Deflectors
- DMS Fender Tank with hoses and fittings
- DMS Heat Exchanger with fittings
- Complete Hardware Kit
- Installation Instructions

What You will need to provide:
- Coolant, Tools, Patience and attention to detail for installation... or, someone like that, who you trust with your beloved, adorned, magnificent, earth shaking, alarm sounding ZL1.
- Basic hand tools. Although this can be done with one person, in a garage with jack stands, having an extra set of hands available to handle the front bumper fascia is helpful.
Design & Engineering
DMS High-Performance Heat Exchanger
The Stage.I solution starts with the most popular front HX on the market for the 6th gen Camaro. CSF teamed up with DMS to offer a huge upgrade for the Camaro ZL1 and CTS-V. This Heat Exchanger is the largest upgrade possible for both vehicles and offers a massive increase in core size and fluid volume. At more than 2 times the size of the factory heat exchanger, the DMS cooler greatly reduces the ZL1/CTS-V's heat soak issues.
DMS Fender Tank
The Dedicated Motorsports coolant expansion tank for the 2017-2024 Camaro ZL1 adds 2 gallons of additional coolant capacity. This additional volume will not only help keep intake air temps lower but it will also allow air to escape the system making the system more efficient overall. This tank also aids in filling/bleeding the system with the addition of a 1.5" Filler cap and the included funnel that aids in filling the tank through the fender opening. This is perfect for cars with Magnuson superchargers and no coolant fill port.
The DMS fender tank is constructed out of durable .125" aluminum, expertly tig welded in house at DMS and powdered coated in a satin black finish. It features -12 ORB inlet/outlet barbs with -12an ORB fittings allowing you to run 3/4" hose or upgrade to AN lines and fitting. The GMS Kit includes a pair of pre-made -12an feed and return lines along with all hardware for trouble free installation.
GMS High Flow Impact Bar
Rounding out the parts list is our signature High Flow Impact Bar which not only provides a clear view of your new massive DMS heat exchanger for a clear aesthetic improvement, but also the improvement in airflow.
Adding to this innovative patent pending design is a pair of custom two-piece CNC'd aluminum air deflectors that help prevent air from trapping at the bolt flanges. Rather, they channel to either the main or auxiliary coolers.
Outfitted with a heavy duty front tow hook coupler and treated to a matte black powder coated finish, this product was designed to offer a turn-key solution to improve a poorly designed OEM part. This product ships with installation instructions and hardware. Although this product was literally designed in the garage, this 3D modeled assembly is fabricated using precision laser cut parts for a professional fit. Note: This package ships in (3) separate boxes.
GMS vs OEM
Not only are all these parts more efficient and more durable than OEM but combined with the 2 gallon fender tank this kit holds approximately 715% more fluid than the OEM Heat Exchanger and Auxiliary Radiators. The Stage.I system increases the overall fluid volume of the heat exchanger from 0.5 quarts to 10.75 quarts (or ~2.7 gallons). This greatly reduces heat soak and can keep your charge air system running optimally in almost any situation.
â Fitment Notes
2017-2024 Camaro ZL1: this unit will not fit with the PLM heat exchanger.
2017-2024 Camaro SS: This system can be installed on the 2017-2024 Camaro SS with minor modifications needed to the backside of the bumper by trimming 2 plastic clips. This is a great option for SS owners running aftermarket forced induction with an air-to-water intercooler/charge-air cooler setup.
