Description
The Mishimoto MMCPKG-CHE-65 Cooling Package bundles a 3-row brazed aluminum radiator, an all-aluminum fan shroud carrying two high-flow electric fans, and a digitally calibrated low-temperature thermostat into a single direct-fit cooling upgrade for classic Chevrolet muscle cars. Instead of piecing together individual cooling components, owners get a matched Mishimoto radiator, fan shroud, and thermostat engineered to work together as one system.
This Chevrolet Chevelle cooling package is built around a tube-and-fin, down-flow aluminum core with cast aluminum end tanks and a billet aluminum fill neck, giving the radiator added heat and pressure tolerance over a stock setup. The radiator also incorporates an internal transmission oil cooler to help maintain optimal fluid temperatures, while the included Mishimoto thermostat opens at a lower 180°F versus the stock 195°F activation point, letting coolant begin circulating through the engine sooner. The stock mechanical fan is replaced by the included aluminum fan shroud and its two high-flow 12-inch electric fans, each rated to move over 1,150 CFM of airflow, for a more consistent and dependable cooling package whether the car is a weekend cruiser or a drag strip regular. As with all Mishimoto products, this package is backed by the Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.
Vehicle Applications
This Mishimoto Cooling Package is designed to fit the 1965–1967 Chevrolet Chevelle 300, as well as the 1966–1968 Chevrolet Bel Air, Biscayne, Caprice, El Camino, and Impala. Its combination of radiator, fan shroud, and thermostat is intended as a direct cooling system upgrade for these classic Chevrolet platforms.
