Over continuous heat cycles, these polymer tanks embrittle, crack at the upper inlet and lower outlet necks, and leak under normal 15-18 PSI cooling system pressure. Furthermore, the reverse-flow cooling architecture of the 5.7L LT1 demands aggressive heat rejection, which the narrow factory core struggles to deliver during heavy towing or prolonged stop-and-go driving, leading to fluid breakdown and elevated cylinder head temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis high-efficiency crossflow performance radiator is built with 100% TIG-welded aircraft-grade aluminum, replacing crack-prone composite end tanks with structural, leak-tested alloy. The 3-row racing core measures 30-1\/2 inches wide by 17 inches high, significantly increasing fluid surface area and maximizing air-to-coolant thermal transfer. It integrates internal transmission and engine oil cooler circuits to maintain critical drivetrain fluid viscosities under heavy load without requiring external line rerouting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e1994-1996 Cadillac Fleetwood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e5.7L LT1 V8 \/ GM D-body\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStock Output\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e260 hp \/ 330 lb-ft (Approx)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px;\"\u003eDPI 1516 \/ CU1516 \/ 52467761\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994 Cadillac Fleetwood 5.7L V8 Automatic (Base, Brougham)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995 Cadillac Fleetwood 5.7L V8 Automatic (Base, Brougham)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1996 Cadillac Fleetwood 5.7L V8 Automatic (Base, Brougham)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOEM \/ Interchange Part Numbers: DPI 1516, CU1516, RAD1516, CC1516, 52467761, 52470704, 52471414, 52473177\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Cadillac Heavy-Duty Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to handle the mass and towing capabilities of the full-size D-body platform, this all-aluminum cooling assembly delivers sustained thermal stability, preventing engine knock and transmission fluid overheating under high duty cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50426393985272,"sku":"DS-EZ4ZQTKCD","price":253.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-for-cadillac-fleetwood-1994-1996-5-7l-automatic-1.jpg?v=1788398177","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/fr\/products\/performance-radiator-for-cadillac-fleetwood-1994-1996-5-7l-automatic","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
