Radiator

1 Slow Z · 07-28-2012, 07:38 AM

Looks like my radiator took a shit. Does anyone have one that's in good shape that they wanna get rid of? Also, I've heard that you can use a LT1 radiator from a certain year but I don't know what year, does anyone know which one to use? If you have one please shoot me a text at 843-566-2045 and I can come get it.

Thanks, Mike

Thanks for the offers, but I went dowm to Parks and got an LT1 radiator. The houses the guy gave me are the wrong ones so maybe the radiator is wrong too?

Supposedly they cool better. I've heard that the 97 fits into 98-02 and its a bigger/better version of what they originally put into the 98-02's.

Size wise probably. Different part numbers for them. If they are direct replacement your new one would work correct?

I meant size and hose hookup. Obviosuly if they were the exact same they would carry the same P/N. I have heard lots of folks say that the 97 radiators help the newer LS1's run a lot cooler, which is good news considering where we live.
