Dual-Fan Radiator for 1988-1995 C/K Series LS LT Swaps

A massive 28.25 inch aluminum core delivers superior heat rejection for LS and LT swaps in 1988 to 1995 C/K Series GMT400 trucks, keeping temperatures stable during hard pulls, hot weather cruising and stop and go traffic. Dual high performance fans ensure consistent airflow, while TIG welded aluminum tanks and core provide corrosion resistant durability, precise direct fit and proven reliability made in the USA.

28.25-Inch Core Radiator with Fans for 1988-1995 C/K Series LS and LT Swaps

Swapping an LS or LT powerplant into a 1988 to 1995 C/K Series truck often leads to high coolant temperatures, and the 28.25 inch core radiator with fans is engineered to keep heat in check under sustained load. Equipped with dual electric fans and a full aluminum core, it maintains steady coolant flow in stop and go traffic or while towing heavy loads. Installation calls for no frame modifications or custom brackets on manual transmission models, delivering a direct fit that respects factory mounting points. Precision TIG welding on both tanks and the core delivers reliable, leak free performance and long lasting resistance to vibration and temperature swings.

Oversized Core for Enhanced Cooling Efficiency

The 28.25 inch core area significantly increases the surface available for heat exchange between coolant and ambient air. By expanding the core width beyond factory dimensions, coolant sheds heat faster during heavy towing or spirited driving. This helps maintain stable engine temperature under sustained load and protects seals and gaskets from excessive thermal cycles. The design prioritizes continuous heat rejection in hot weather or at low speeds.

Dual Electric Fans Deliver Consistent Airflow

Equipped with dual fans, the radiator guarantees strong airflow through the core even when the truck is idling in traffic. Each fan engages automatically as coolant temperatures rise, preventing any drop in airflow when vehicle speed is low. This steady circulation keeps temperatures uniform during stop and go errands or extended highway cruises. The result is reliable performance whether towing a trailer or navigating crowded streets.

All Aluminum Construction with Precision Tig Welds

Constructed entirely from aluminum and TIG welded for precision, this radiator combines lightweight strength with resistance to vibration and temperature swings. Aluminum's natural corrosion resistance and low mass reduce overall weight while ensuring the assembly stands up to thermal cycling. The smooth uniform weld beads form a leak free seal at every tank to core junction, supporting reliable operation under high pressure. Made locally in the USA, it meets strict quality standards for long lasting durability.

Finish Options Provide Lasting Corrosion Protection

Builders can choose the raw aluminum finish for a modern industrial look or opt for a black epoxy coat to guard against moisture and road debris. The epoxy layer adheres tightly, creating a barrier that wards off surface oxidation in harsh conditions. Both finishes are applied under controlled conditions to ensure even coverage and adhesion. This flexibility allows the truck to retain a factory style appearance while gaining added corrosion protection.

Trust this radiator to maintain optimal temperatures under tough conditions and for the same radiator but without fans see our 1988-1995 LS Radiator 28.25" Core Width (Manual Transmission).
