High Efficiency Cooling for 1982-2004 S-10 Manual Trucks

Optimal thermal management for manual transmission SSeries pickups comes from 100% TIG welded aluminum core and tanks, combining fast heat rejection, corrosion resistance and lightweight durability. Built in the USA to exact standards for 1982 to 2004 Chevy S-10 manual trucks, it delivers reliable performance, a robust finish and lasting resale value.

1982-2004 Chevy S-10 Manual Transmission Radiator

When outfitting a 1982 to 2004 Chevy S10 with a manual transmission for spirited runs or heavy towing, consistent heat rejection becomes critical. This S10 Truck Radiator (Manual Trans) is constructed from TIG welded aluminum tanks and core to deliver steady cooling even under demanding conditions. Supporting LS engine conversions in SSeries trucks, it offers a choice of bare aluminum or epoxy finish to resist corrosion while keeping weight low. Built in the USA to exact fitment standards for all 1982 to 2004 Chevy S10 models, it ensures reliable installation and long service life.

Precision TIG Welded Aluminum Structure

This radiator assembly features 100% TIG welded construction throughout the aluminum tanks and core. TIG welding produces uniform weld beads with deep penetration, minimizing distortion under pressure and ensuring leak free joints. By preserving the inherent strength and light weight of the high quality aluminum, the design resists damage from vibration and thermal cycling. The result is a durable heat exchanger that maintains integrity in both daily driving and spirited runs.

Advanced Core Design for Efficient Heat Rejection

At the heart of the radiator is a core made from high quality aluminum renowned for rapid heat transfer. Wide fin spacing and a broad surface area accelerate airflow, shedding thermal energy even under heavy towing or high ambient temperatures. This level of heat rejection is especially critical in S Series trucks equipped with LS engine conversions that generate extra output and heat. By maintaining stable engine and transmission temperatures, the radiator reduces wear on components and the risk of overheating, supporting consistent performance and longer service intervals.

Choice of Bare Aluminum or Epoxy Coating

Owners can opt for the bright natural finish of bare aluminum or select a protective black epoxy coating. The epoxy layer forms a barrier against moisture, road salts and chemical exposure, greatly reducing corrosion over time. In contrast, the bare aluminum finish showcases the precision welding and offers excellent heat reflectivity. Both finishes deliver dependable protection and maintain a clean engine bay appearance under diverse conditions.

Made in USA for Exact Fit and Quality Assurance

Manufactured in the USA to precise fitment standards, this radiator installs directly into all 1982 to 2004 Chevy S-10 trucks with manual transmission. Domestic production allows rigorous quality checks at every stage, ensuring consistent part tolerances and reliable installation. The made in USA designation also enhances resale value by signaling craftsmanship and local support. This focus on build quality gives owners confidence in years of dependable cooling performance.

Crafted in the USA for reliable cooling and easy installation. For the same radiator but with fans check out our 1982-2004 S-10 Truck Radiator with Fans (Manual Transmission).
