LS and LT Radiator for 1968-1972 A-Body Vehicles and 1970-1972 Monte Carlo (Manual Trans)
Swapping an LS or LT engine into a 1968-1972 A-Body or Monte Carlo manual transmission car pushes stock cooling to its limits, and this radiator with integrated dual electric fans is engineered to keep temperatures under control. Constructed from TIG-welded aluminum with a precision core and tanks, it bolts in using factory mounting points and maintains reliable performance under extended driving conditions. Whether you're in stop and go traffic or on the highway, airflow remains consistent while finishes resist corrosion to help ensure durability over many seasons. This design brings LS and LT compatibility to classic A-Body cooling setups without complex modifications.
TIG-Welded Aluminum Construction for Unmatched Durability
This radiator features 100% TIG-welded premium aluminum tanks and core, creating seamless joints that resist vibration and thermal cycling. TIG welding ensures each seam is free of porosity, minimizing the risk of leaks under high pressure and heat. The use of premium aluminum also provides excellent heat transfer while keeping overall weight low, enhancing both durability and handling. Built in the USA, this solid assembly delivers reliable performance season after season without compromise.
Dual Electric Fans for Consistent Cooling Performance
Equipped with two high-capacity electric fans, this cooling system maintains stable temperatures in both stop and go traffic and on open roads. The fans draw air efficiently through the core, helping to reject heat quickly when engine loads spike. Designed to operate with minimal power draw, they support your LS or LT swap without overtaxing the alternator. This balanced approach keeps coolant temperatures in check during spirited driving or daily commutes alike.
Precision Fitment for Classic A Body and Monte Carlo Manual Transmission
Engineered specifically for 1968 to 1972 A Body and 1970 to 1972 Monte Carlo models with a manual transmission, this unit uses existing mounting locations for a true bolt-in installation. By adhering to factory dimensions and connections, it eliminates the need for custom brackets or cutting radiator supports. Enthusiasts can integrate modern LS or LT engines without altering the core structure of their classic chassis, streamlining the swap process and preserving vehicle integrity.
Finish Options That Enhance Longevity and Style
Choose between the natural bare aluminum finish or a black epoxy coating for added corrosion protection and visual appeal. The bare surface highlights the radiator's polished craftsmanship, while the epoxy layer resists oxidation and road debris. Both options safeguard against environmental damage, helping to maintain optimal thermal efficiency over time. This attention to finish quality ensures your cooling system remains both functional and striking for years to come.
