97-04 Corvette Radiator AT

The 97-04 Corvette Radiator AT from Cold Case Radiators is a purpose-built cooling solution engineered for C5-generation Corvette owners running automatic transmissions who demand reliable heat rejection without factory compromises. Whether you're running stock power or modified output, this radiator addresses the thermal demands of sustained driving, track use, or high-ambient climates where OEM cooling falls short. Cold Case has built a reputation among serious automotive enthusiasts for delivering aluminum radiators that combine efficient cooling capacity with show-quality construction.

Built from premium aluminum with a polished finish, the 97-04 Corvette Radiator AT features driver-side inlet and passenger-side outlet configuration optimized for factory plumbing integration. At 30 inches wide by 18.7 inches tall and 2.5 inches deep, this unit maximizes core surface area for improved heat transfer while maintaining compatibility with the Corvette's engine bay constraints. The aluminum construction resists corrosion and handles higher coolant pressures, while the polished exterior presentation elevates underhood aesthetics—a detail that separates premium aftermarket radiators from basic replacements. The compact 16-pound weight also reduces unsprung mass compared to heavier cast-iron alternatives.

This radiator suits any 1997–2004 Corvette owner—from those replacing a failed factory unit to enthusiasts upgrading for better thermal stability during spirited driving or autocross work. The automatic transmission-specific design ensures proper fluid cooling passages and outlet sizing for smooth operation. Installation requires basic mechanical skill and standard coolant system work; ensure proper hose routing and verify inlet/outlet orientation before initial startup. For Corvette builders and daily drivers alike, this unit delivers the cooling reliability that modern performance demands.
