i am just about ready to order a radiator for my A body ls conversion, vette acces. drive-wondering if there are any made for this setup-i think they swap around the in/out fittings, sizes-i know the in port is thru the thermostat, mine is the factory 90 deg one, but i know straight ones are avail. if needed
what are you guys using, i am running a procharger, and i have mounted the intercooler in front, so i need a pretty good rad.-i have 2 13" spawl fans from another project i will use-thanks

I just used a Stock Alum Replacement with 2 1" tubes. I got it with a Duel SPAL Fans off of eBay, the Store name was Universal. Good Prices. No problem with the Radiator or Fans. It was about 19"x33" in size.

I have a universal that I haven't installed yet. Still trying to decide if I want to do the work to make it fit or drop the $460 on the AFCO LS1 swap A-Body radiator.

We used the radiator that we sell for the s-10 v8 conversions with our spal fan kit and adjustable controller....
We just welded up some tabs to get it all buttoned up.....

I know I've probably asked you this before, but do you know what lower hose that is?

I just used a 98' Z28 Camaro hose and with a little trim it fit ok..! don't recall that number but it was Goodyear hose.. I will look tonight to see if I still have the number.

The upper I also used a Goodyear, #26347x but added another hose of the same size in just a 90 Elbow to push the hose away from my CAI tubing. Else it would have worked without the 2nd piece added. I think it was also a 98' Z28 Camaro hose..?

Stealth... how come the project.. what is the ETA !

I am not sure what hoses, I go to the parts store with a coat hanger bent up like I need and just find a few...

Wow whoever won that looks like it was a nice grab that thing was barely damaged. Only drawback is that one didn't have any provisions for a tranny cooler but thats not that big of a deal.

that was a great deal, but i have a 69, so it wouldnt fit-but hell, i would have bought it for that anyway-i saw the afco's on summit's site, and ordered one-i still have 2- 13" spawl fans from another project, almost sold them, now i will use them-i gotta get my azz in gear now, still just a body shell and frame, just painted it wed., now i can roll-shooting for April running
the ls1 engine kit installation guide book has some radiator hoses listed in it, might help-i will prob. just roam the parts store
thanks for the heads up on the afco radiator

FYI

The cost is $449.99 with a trans cooler and $397.99 without a trans cooler.

... the listing was not the swap LSx swap so I emailed him....
