Black 1996 LT4 Coupe/ 2004 Z06/Z16
My black book says that originally the 1996 LT1 had a .93 inch thick radiator & the LT4 had a 1.34 inch thick radiator.

The current GM part # (52473260) is one radiator for ALL 1996 Corvettes. I have checked this with two local dealers & Kopp's dealership.

Nobody can tell me how thick this current replacement is. GM parts direct does not have the detail (thickness).

Anyone know what you get for thickness when you buy this current replacement.

This question (thread) not for aftermarket stuff, just GM please.

Thanks!
 
Probably I shouldn't respond to this since I really don't know for sure, but being a owner of my LT4 since it was new I have read every thing available regarding LT4s & I don't ever recall a discussion related to a different radiator thickness being used. I do recall discussions that automatics used a radiator providing transmission fluid cooling & all replacements are now of the automatic transmission type. So I don't know answer, but maybe this helps.
