1967-1969 F-Body LS and LT Radiator for Camaro/Firebird Auto Trans
For classic F-Body builds pairing an LS or LT powerplant with an automatic transmission stability in operating temperatures is essential. The 1967-1969 Camaro/Firebird Radiator (Auto Trans) provides reliable cooling by channeling fluid through a direct fit aluminum radiator core that matches factory mounting points without bracket modifications. Each unit employs precision TIG welding and a corrosion resistant finish to withstand repeated pressure cycles and preserve hose alignment. By preserving firewall clearance and supporting both engine and gearbox temperature control this radiator fits seamlessly into 1967 to 1969 Chevy Camaro and Pontiac Firebird restorations.
Precision TIG Welding for Leak-Free Performance
Every joint on the radiator is completed with TIG welding to produce smooth, uniform seams that reliably resist leaks during repeated thermal stress. This continuous process bonds the tanks and core in a single cycle to eliminate weak spots at weld intersections. The result is dimensional stability across broad temperature swings and sustained resilience on highway commutes or track days. Each assembly undergoes rigorous pressure testing to confirm the strength of every weld.
Aluminum Core for Rapid Heat Transfer
The radiator core is constructed from high-quality aluminum known for its exceptional thermal conductivity. Coolant flowing through thin, flat tubes and multilouver fins sheds heat quickly into the air stream. Aluminum's inherent resistance to corrosion helps maintain clear passages for long service life. Lightweight construction also reduces front end mass, preserving original handling dynamics with an LS or LT swap in the classic F Body chassis.
Engineered Direct Fit for Classic F Body
This radiator is tailored to mount directly to the factory core support on 1967 to 1969 Camaro and Firebird models, avoiding any need for custom brackets. Hose outlets align with stock routing for LS and LT engines paired to an automatic transmission, preserving firewall clearance and steering line geometry. The exact match to original mounting points speeds installation, reducing the risk of interference with wiring looms or accessory drives. Builders gain a plug and play solution that honors period chassis architecture.
Coating Options for Corrosion Defense and Appearance
Choose polished bare aluminum to reflect radiant heat away from the core or select a durable black epoxy finish to shield the surface from moisture and road debris. Both finishes undergo uniform application to prevent hot spots and ensure consistent cooling performance. The epoxy option forms a tough surface layer while maintaining thermal efficiency, and the natural aluminum look wipes clean easily. Options allow builders to match style to their restoration vision without sacrificing function.
