Performance Under Pressure, Lap After Lap, Mile After Mile
Our line of universal crossflow aluminum Chevy radiators makes it easy for budget-minded racers to get a professional-quality, no compromises aluminum racing radiator. Constructed of lightweight, 100 percent aluminum, each radiator assembly is fully furnace brazed for maximum durability and performance. Unlike lower cost or OEM radiators, there are no epoxy and gaskets used in the radiator’s construction here! Epoxy acts as an insulator, causing radiators to heat unevenly, and this stress combined with the vibration from racing can cause epoxy seals to crack and leak or separate over time. Furnace brazing minimizes fatigue from the rapid heating and cooling cycles. Since all the metal parts are fused together with a metal joint, they conduct heat evenly between the tanks and the rest of the assembly, preventing uneven expansion between the fused pieces, keeping the joint strong. Fully furnace brazed construction also means no crimped on end tanks with an O-ring seal to fail that can put you out of the race or on a flatbed ride home.
We welded a CNC machined billet filler neck to our radiator’s end tank for a strong seal under high pressures that will outperform cast filler necks. The billet filler neck is designed with an industry standard 1-5/8-inch inner cap diameter so that you can use any off the shelf radiator cap with the pressure rating you need for racing or street use (yes, these radiators work great for engine swaps, custom builds, and more for street use applications). An 1/8-inch NPT overflow port is machined into the billet filler neck to accommodate the included 1/4-inch hose barb fitting included. This port can be used for a simple overflow tank for racing, or a more street friendly recirculating recovery tank system.
Maximum Cooling Ability for Your Race Car, Street Car, or Muscle Truck
Our double pass design uses two rows of 1-inch wide aluminum tubes which have more surface area than similar design copper radiators, cooling the same as five rows of copper tubes. The double-pass design flows the coolant twice through the radiator, allowing longer time in the airflow and lowering your coolant temperatures by 10-20 degrees. A dense fin structure adds an additional layer of strength to the support tubes, better directs air flow through the core, and has more surface area to transfer and shed heat. The core is 2.25 inches thick, a perfect balance of maximizing directed airflow and heat transfer. The crossflow design allows the radiator cap to be mounted on the low-pressure (suction) side of the system, minimizing pressure on the neck assembly, especially in high-RPM usage. This radiator is built for one purpose, cooling your engine. No internal transmission cooler maximizes cooling efficiency. Mounting an external transmission cooler will be necessary for automatic equipped cars and trucks.
Multiple Widths Available Means We Have a Radiator That Fits Your Small or Big Chevy V8
Our universal radiator isn’t made for any one specific car or truck, but we offer options to make it fit your race car or custom project. Since we didn’t add mounting brackets, this means you can easily adapt our radiator to any build. We feature widths (measured outside tank-to-outside tank) of 22-, 24-, 26-, 28-, or 31-inches and all are 19 inches tall. We offer universal insulated mounting brackets in steel and aluminum which support or clamp to the tanks top and bottom, as well as shrouds for electric and mechanical fans, or pre-made single fan/shroud kits and dual fan/shroud kits This radiator features the double pass Chevy hose fitting configuration with a 1.5-inch passenger side upper inlet, and 1.75-inch passenger side lower outlet.

Great Radiator!
I just squeezed this 19"x31" in my little LS V8 S10 Blazer. Having the double pass with both water necks on the passenger side, made hose's easy to connect. The size of this mammoth unit, made a little tricky to install. But I'm happy with how cools. Built my own fan shroud w/10" fans. Dose the job! This 5.3 V8 with the Procharger doesn't even sweat it!! . With the quality of construction and great price I couldn't picked a better choice. Thanks Speedway! Justin E. Derby, KS

Cheap
I ended up buying two of these , only because I had already made the mounts for it, the first one leaked in two different spots, one around the lower hose area, and bottom right small tubes I would not have bought it again but I spent some time building the mounts in the vehicle

I'm using this radiator, pn 917340-24, with an electric fan, pn 359717, in a 64 Corvair. The radiator is mounted to the side of the rear mounted 4.3 Chevy V6. The fan is direct mounted to the radiator with out a shroud and draws through the radiator then blows on the engine. It wouldn't keep the temperature down when breaking in the cam, the lower hose was still hot and it didn't feel much cooler than the top hose. I have a 160* stat in it and running clear water for the moment. Should this fan be enough? I don't have much room for a shroud, but could build a block off panel for the uncovered parts of the radiator if that would help. It just doesn't seem that there's enough air flow. Would you recommend a different fan? I would need a shallow fan for clearance.

I want to use your 31" radiator as an intercooler for my 6.0L LSA supercharger project on my 01 GMC Sierra. I'm considering your product since it is much cheaper than purpose built intercoolers. I chose this size since I already have 26" dual electric fans from an Olds Alero (could use smaller fans ) and I have lots of room to work with. Will be adding this intercooler radiator in front of my existing AC condenser and engine radiator. Also using the larger engine radiator with dual electric OEM fans.I have dual batteries and a 270 amp alternator too :-) By adding this intercooler and additional fan setup, will it negatively impact overall engine and AC performance ? Feel I'm adding a large obstruction that will cut down on overall airflow. Not a tow vehicle. Thanks, Art

What is the smallest version of this for use with Dual Fans 3000 CFM Or the minimum width for one Large 3000 CFM Fan This is to be used on a Stock LS 5.3 Junkyard engine and Transmission from a 2006 Chevy Tahoe. It is going into our 1962 Chevy C20 Converted to 1/2 Ton 5 Lug wheel pattern all the way around Flatbed Ford 9 inch Highway gears We tow A Open car hauler from time to time aside from that it gets used alot in Traffic Riverside CA to Los Angeles and back. Also any Ideas on the Thermostat.? We are having the Computer electronics done by Pros we asked for Bone Stock Configuration so it lasts. The Engine and 4l60e Trans we got had 67,000 miles on it looks in excellent shape it was tested before we got it.
