Hi,is there a difference between a 66 radiator and 67,when did they use that finger protector on top of it?? Does anybody know the correct stamps on the tanks for a 66 396 4 speed car with no air and a 3 series rear end? thanks

The mounting frame around a 67 radiator is offset to make the core closer to the engine than a 66. If you put a 66 radiator in a 67 you usually have to trim a 1/4" or so off the radiator support at the top to clear the top tank. All the reproduction radiators I have seen so far are 66 design.

Dan, Not clear on what you mean by an offset of 1/4". The bracket that the radiator is mount to, which inturn bolts to the radiator support had a U shaped sleave that the core slips into. And then there is the 3 row verse 4 row option. If core is moved back would the fan spacer change? Two fan spacers in 66/67 depending upon wether or not a fan shroud. Finger guard used when there was no fan shroud. No finger guard when using a fan shroud. Shroud std with AC or HD or AIR.

Fill is in different places.

Eddie, Where is the fill hole located on the 67 SS model?

hi,thanks for all the help,how bout this radiator on ebay? Item number: 4602458446

uzdpartz,

The 66 & 67 radiators were the same in size, 26.5 inches wide & 2.75 inches thick with the filler hole location on the right side when standing and facing the engine bay. The standard was a 3 core radiator. With a manual transmission part # 3007620. With an automatic transmission, part #3007621. Their was also an optional heavy duty 4 core that was found with the 375hp motor, or w/ SMOG pump and or AC.

A good bang for your buck is to purchase the CD disc "1966 Chevelle Facts Book from Mike Crown AKA: MysteryChevelle. Lots of good information and more details regarding radiators in Chapter 36 for the 1966 Chevelle.

Good Luck,

My mistake, the fills are in the same place. I should have checked the CD.
