1961-1962 Chevy Corvette C1 Radiator for Automatic Transmission

Restorers tackling overheating on highway runs in a 1961-1962 C1 Corvette with automatic transmission will appreciate the direct compatibility of the 1961-1962 Corvette Radiator (Auto Trans). Built with TIG welded aluminum core and tanks, it matches factory mounting points and hose connections so installation requires no custom brackets or cutting. Its high coolant flow capacity and corrosion resistant lightweight construction keep engine temperatures stable while preserving transmission fluid integrity and bolstering long term reliability.

Precision TIG Welding for Lasting Core Integrity

The radiator's tanks and core are assembled using TIG welding, forming uniform bead patterns that resist fatigue and cracking from engine vibration. This method fuses premium aluminum with exceptional tensile strength, ensuring structural stability over thousands of miles. Aluminum's natural resistance to corrosion also prevents rust and pitting, while the all aluminum build keeps overall weight low. As a result, the cooling system maintains its integrity even under extended use at highway speeds.

Direct Fit for 1961 to 1962 Corvette C1 Cooling Layout

Engineered to match factory mounting points and original hose connections, this replacement unit drops into place without the need for custom brackets or tubing modifications. Technicians can reuse stock fasteners to secure the radiator and preserve correct coolant pathways, maintaining pump efficiency and system balance. Whether installed by seasoned mechanics or home restorers, the plug and play design cuts installation time and eliminates common fitment issues. Accurate alignment also helps prevent leaks and avoids stress on surrounding components.

Optimized Thermal Flow Protecting Engine and Transmission

The core features a multiple row design that boosts coolant circulation and accelerates heat rejection, keeping engine temperature stable during sustained highway runs. By rapidly shedding excess heat, the radiator also helps maintain transmission fluid viscosity, safeguarding automatic gearboxes from fluid breakdown. This steady thermal control supports both engine and transmission longevity, so drivers can push the Corvette with confidence. Enhanced flow dynamics reduce hot spots and improve overall driving comfort.

Choice of Bare Aluminum or Protective Black Epoxy Finish

Customers can select a polished bare aluminum finish that showcases raw metal craftsmanship or opt for a black epoxy coating that shields the surface from debris and moisture. The bare option offers a classic look that resists corrosion through natural aluminum properties, while the epoxy layer adds impact resistance to guard against chips. Both finishes retain full heat transfer efficiency, allowing for aesthetic customization without performance loss. Each finish also simplifies maintenance and touch up over time.

Trust in its durable design and reliable performance; for the same item but with a fan, consider our 1961-1962 Corvette Radiator with Fan (Automatic Transmission).
