Camaro's down.. Well if it's not one thing..it's another..
Me and my Tuner were playing with the Car, we were taking it out and doing the WOT Tuning, and I had to adjust the Throttle Body for the Idle..and I noticed Coolant all over the passenger side Head.
The Radiator had cracked and shot Coolant all over the Head. I was able to drive it home and get my other Car, but it's down for now..

Right after I read this, a crack of lightning ripped through the sky and all the LT1's in NY revved at the same time in disbelief and horror.
Good luck, and Godspeed.

Radiator is just a minor setback, I was worried it would be way worst!

You have no luck Merv. Well i hope nothing else got hurt in the process of radiator dying. Best of luck. If i lived closer to you id let you use my S60 and M/Ts to make a few runs.

Thanks guys..it won't take long to fix..I literally live right behind a Radiator Shop. I have to take it out and bring it over there.
I just got done ripping a set of MT's off the Car...I need something better..
Always got a funny guy..

Yea, hopefully the Car won't be down for long.

See now if it was an Lt1 you would have blown both heads off the car, destroyed the opti and spun a rod bearing at the mere thought of there being a radiator problem.
I am jealous of your car (but think it needs a t56..
). If you ever decide you want to do it again, i volunteer my car...

It's not as bad as some of you think..I can still drive it around no problems..when you hammer it, that is when it comes spraying out of the crack. Funny thing is when it's running, it doesn't even leak..
I am goin to get a better look at it tomorrow..cause the way it is doesn't make sense to me..
