IDK for sure, but 92 or 94 the rad core support bracket should be the same. If so, the the rad will fit ether. As long as you stay with the same style, like Wt to Wt of Silverado to Silverado, I think the core support is the same.

My suspicion is they don't acknowledge the 6.5 before 94? My dad had a 92 and used a radiator from a 6.2 square body Blazer. Bolted right up. You should be fine with a 94 radiator. Does yours have the pressurized expansion tank?

92 and 94 are different looks like the 92's have a internal oil cooler and use a radiator cap where on the 94+ have the cap on the surge tank.

Looking at rock auto they show a 6.5 in 92 but they are out of stock. Looked at 94's and they are out of stock as well.
