LS Cooling Radiator for 1973-1976 Chevy Corvette Y-Body

Engineered to tame LS heat in 1973-1976 Y-Body Corvettes, this 26 inch aluminum radiator core with dual fans ensures expanded cooling surface and rapid heat rejection under load or in traffic. Corrosion resistant construction and lightweight design deliver durable, precise fitment while domestic assembly guarantees consistent performance.

26-Inch Wide Core Radiator with Fans for LS Swap in 1973-1976 Chevy Corvette

When outfitting a mid 1970s Corvette with an LS engine the factory cooling system can quickly reach its limits under hard driving. The 1973-1976 Corvette Radiator 26" Wide Core (Auto Trans) with Fans brings a 26 inch wide core and dual cooling fans that work together to keep engine temperatures in check during extended highway runs and city traffic. Its tailored fit for the Y-Body chassis around the automatic transmission streamlines installation and aligns directly with LS plumbing for straightforward integration.

Extra Wide Core Boosting Thermal Efficiency

The 26 inch wide core design significantly increases coolant contact area, allowing heat to dissipate more rapidly under load. By expanding the cooling surface, the radiator can keep engine temperatures steady during spirited driving and on hot summer days. This broader core also reduces the likelihood of hot spots that can lead to premature wear on critical components. In real-world terms, you get more consistent temperature control during extended highway runs and in stop-and-go traffic.

Dual Fan Configuration for High-Performance Airflow

Two high?capacity fans installed directly on the radiator ensure a constant flow of air at low vehicle speeds. When traffic slows or the engine is pushed to high RPM, these fans activate to draw heat away from the core, preventing overheating. Their synchronized operation maintains optimal airflow even when the natural ram effect is minimal. The result is reliable cooling performance whether you're idling at a traffic light or launching down the quarter mile.

Aluminum Construction Balancing Strength and Weight

Crafted from high-quality aluminum, this radiator offers an ideal balance of durability and lightness. Aluminum's excellent thermal conductivity accelerates heat rejection, while its natural corrosion resistance extends component life even in harsh environments. Being made in the USA ensures tight quality control from raw material to finished product. You benefit from a strong yet lightweight solution that won't add unnecessary mass to your Corvette.

Precise Fit for 1973-1976 Y Body Corvette

Designed specifically for the 1973 through 1976 Y Body Corvette with automatic transmission, this radiator aligns perfectly with factory brackets and hose locations. The tailored dimensions mean you can install it without modifying the core support or altering LS plumbing. By retaining the stock mounting points, the upgrade process becomes straightforward and reduces installation time. This plug-and-play approach makes it easier to achieve reliable cooling in your classic Corvette swap.
