Slim Radiator & Fan for 1968-72 Nova, 64-66 Skylark LS/LT Swaps

A slim profile aluminum radiator with an integrated fan ensures full clearance for manual transmission accessories in 1968-72 Nova and 64-66 Skylark LS/LT swaps while drawing minimal amperage and delivering strong airflow. Proudly built in the USA with local precision welding and corrosion resistant construction, it offers rapid heat rejection and reliable fitment for confident cooling under spirited driving.

1968-1972 Chevy Nova and 1964-1966 Buick Skylark Radiator for LS and LT Swaps

When fitting an LS or LT engine into a 1968-1972 Chevy Nova or 1964-1966 Buick Skylark X Body chassis with a manual transmission, space constraints and cooling demands require a solution that stays unobtrusive. This radiator and fan assembly meets that challenge with a slim profile that clears belts, pulleys and transmission linkages while still moving sufficient air under all conditions. Crafted from corrosion resistant aluminum, its precision welded core distributes coolant uniformly to help prevent hotspots in stop and go traffic. Mounting points align with factory hose inlets and frame brackets for a direct fit that preserves original routing and cuts install time.

Precise Fitment for LS and LT Radiator on X Body Frames

This radiator is engineered to mount directly into 1968-1972 Chevy Nova and 1964-1966 Buick Skylark X Body chassis without any modifications. Factory hose inlets and frame brackets align exactly to preserve original coolant routing and accessory drive placement. The slim assembly clears manual transmission linkages, belts and pulleys, eliminating interference and avoiding the need for custom mounts. By maintaining stock attachment points, installation time is minimized and the risk of flow disruption or overheating under heavy load is reduced.

High Performance Aluminum Core for Rapid Heat Transfer

Constructed from high quality aluminum, the core excels at conducting heat away from the LS and LT engine block with minimal weight penalty. Its precision welded network of passages forces coolant across the full surface area to prevent heat pockets even in urban traffic. Aluminum resists corrosion and withstands repeated thermal cycles, ensuring consistent performance over many seasons. The design balances thin wall thickness for fast heat rejection with robust weld joints that tolerate vibration and pressure swings.

Slim Single Fan Cooling with Low Electrical Demand

The integrated single fan draws just enough current from the charging system to maintain airflow without overloading factory wiring or alternators. Its compact motor housing tucks behind the core to preserve space for power steering pumps and brake booster lines. Despite the low draw, the fan moves sufficient air to keep engine temperatures in check during extended idling or spirited driving. This efficient solution offers the benefits of forced cooling without the complexity of twin fan assemblies.

Durable Coating Options for Corrosion Resistance

Finish choices include classic bare aluminum to highlight the core's natural grain or a black epoxy coat that adds an extra layer of protection in harsh environments. Both treatments resist moisture and road salt while maintaining seal integrity at elevated coolant pressures. The epoxy option also reduces surface oxidation over time, keeping the radiator looking clean without affecting thermal performance. These finishes help ensure the cooling system remains reliable through daily driving and track day challenges.

If you prefer the same radiator but without a fan, see our 1968-1972 Nova and 1964-1966 Skylark Radiator (Manual Transmission). Engineered for durable performance in LS and LT swaps.
