Over sustained thermal cycling, the composite tanks degrade, developing stress fractures near inlet and outlet ports. Furthermore, the stock core capacity struggles to manage heat dissipation during aggressive driving or continuous load, leading to elevated coolant temperatures and reduced transmission fluid cooling efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Engineering Solution\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for high-demand duty cycles, this performance radiator features a 100% TIG-welded all-aluminum construction eliminating crimped plastic failure points. The 3-row racing tube layout significantly expands fluid volume and surface contact area, accelerating heat transfer across the 30-1\/2 in by 17 in core. Integrated heavy-duty transmission and engine oil coolers maintain optimal fluid viscosity under load, protecting vital drivetrain components.\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 Chevrolet Impala\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 \/ B-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, RAD1516, CC1516\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1994 Chevrolet Impala SS 5.7L V8 Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1995 Chevrolet Impala SS 5.7L V8 Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1996 Chevrolet Impala SS 5.7L V8 Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Chevrolet Muscle Caliber\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to handle the sustained torque and thermal output of the GM LT1 V8, this direct bolt-on cooling unit provides the thermal headroom necessary for spirited driving, heavy cruising, and high-performance powertrain upgrades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50426379174136,"sku":"DS-EEROPVW7Q","price":253.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/performance-radiator-for-chevrolet-impala-1994-1996-5-7l-automatic-1.jpg?v=1788398085","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/products\/performance-radiator-for-chevrolet-impala-1994-1996-5-7l-automatic","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
