Manual Trans Cooling Upgrade for 1982-2004 Chevy S-10

Achieve optimal thermal management in your SSeries truck with a 100% TIG welded high grade aluminum radiator core and tanks designed for fast heat rejection, corrosion resistance and lightweight durability. Built in the USA to precise fitment standards for the 1982-2004 Chevy S-10, it ensures reliable operation, durable finish and strong resale appeal.

Radiator for 1982-2004 Chevy S-10 Manual Transmission

Maintaining consistent temperatures on a manual transmission S-10 demands a radiator that can handle extended operation without falter. This 1982-2004 S-10 Truck Radiator (Manual Trans) is precision crafted from TIG-welded aluminum tanks and core to deliver reliable cooling performance across daily driving and spirited runs. Designed to accommodate LS engine conversions, it fits all 1982 to 2004 Chevy S-10 models and offers a choice of bare or epoxy finishes for lasting corrosion resistance.

Precision TIG Welded Aluminum Construction

The 1982 to 2004 S10 Truck Radiator features 100% TIG welded tanks and core, ensuring uniform weld beads and flawless joints. TIG welding produces deeper weld penetration and minimal distortion, resulting in tank integrity that resists leaks under high pressure. This process also preserves the inherent strength of the aluminum material, keeping the assembly very light without sacrificing durability. The outcome is a heat exchanger that withstands vibration and thermal cycling encountered in daily driving or spirited runs.

Optimized Thermal Management for Demanding Driving

At the heart of this radiator lies a core made from high grade aluminum that excels at fast heat rejection, drawing thermal energy away from the engine and dissipating it into flowing air. The wide fin layout and broad surface area of the core accelerate coolant cooling, maintaining stable temperatures even under heavy loads or high ambient heat. This level of thermal control prevents overheating and reduces stress on engine components, leading to improved reliability and extended service life.

Choice of Bare Aluminum or Black Epoxy Finish

Owners can select the natural sheen of bare aluminum or the added protection of a black epoxy coating, each tailored for lasting appearance and performance. The epoxy layer creates a barrier against moisture and road chemicals, greatly reducing the risk of corrosion over time. In contrast, the bare aluminum finish highlights the craftsmanship of the TIG welded build and offers excellent heat reflectivity. Both finishes stand up to harsh conditions while complementing the engine bay with a professional look.

Made in the USA for Fit Accuracy and Resale Appeal

Produced domestically, this radiator meets strict quality standards and part tolerances that align precisely with all 1982 to 2004 S10 manual transmission models. American manufacturing allows for rigorous quality control and quick design refinements, delivering consistent fit and reliable performance on every unit. For owners, the made in USA designation also enhances resale appeal, as it signals craftsmanship and service availability. Together, these factors ensure a component that delivers dependable cooling for years to come.

Count on steady cooling performance for your S-10. For the same radiator but with fans see our 1982-2004 S-10 Truck Radiator with Fans (Manual Transmission).
