LS Swap Pin-Mount Radiator with Auto Trans Cooler for 1963-1972 Chevy Corvette Y-Body
As you integrate an LS motor into a 1963 to 1972 Corvette Y Body with automatic transmission you need a cooling solution that drops into the frame pins and maintains engine coolant and transmission fluid temperatures. The 1963 to 1972 Corvette Pin-Mount Radiator (Auto Trans) features a pin mount design that aligns with the fan shroud and preserves hood clearance. Its core and tanks are fabricated from TIG welded high grade aluminum to maintain uniform flow and structural strength. Choose bare aluminum or black epoxy finishes for corrosion resistance and period correct looks. Fans are not included allowing you to add a fan solution. It also fits small block Corvettes from 1968 to 1972 without factory air conditioning.
Precision Cooling Solution
The 1963-1972 Corvette Pin Mount Radiator for LS engines and auto transmissions delivers seamless performance for classic enthusiasts. Designed specifically for 1963 through 1972 Corvette frames, this unit integrates directly into factory mounting points. Its pin mount configuration maintains correct core spacing and airflow patterns, ensuring consistent operating temperatures under the most demanding driving conditions.
Construction Excellence
Each radiator features 100% TIG-welded, high-grade aluminum tanks and core. The all-aluminum design offers superior corrosion resistance and enhanced thermal conductivity compared to traditional copper units. By reducing overall weight and improving heat transfer efficiency, the radiator helps lower engine bay temperatures and prolong accessory belt life. Every piece is manufactured in the USA under strict quality control to guarantee weld integrity and material consistency.
Auto Transmission Adaptation
Engineered exclusively for vehicles equipped with automatic gearboxes, this radiator includes integrated transmission fluid ports positioned for optimal torque converter cooling. The layout preserves factory hose routing to prevent stress and potential leaks. By maintaining proper fluid temperature, the system reduces transmission wear and maintains shift quality, ensuring reliable performance whether cruising on the interstate or pushing hard on backroads.
MuscleRods Mount Compatibility
This radiator is fully compatible with MuscleRods mount systems, ensuring precise engine and transmission placement. That technical partnership guarantees correct drivetrain angles and consistent belt drive alignment without the need for custom brackets. Verified in comprehensive fitment testing, the design delivers trouble-free installation, proper fan shroud positioning and adequate hood clearance, making it an ideal upgrade for restoration and performance builds alike.
