I didn't remove the radiator either for my opti swap. I also just pulled the fans.

Yup just taking the fans out should give you more than enough clearance to get the opti taken out. I would only take the radiator out if your doing a camswap

lol... well you could jsut cut the core support and put in a radiator like me =D... no more a/c though unless you feel like scrounging up a smaller condenser off some other car and making it fit.

Radiator is one of the simpler things to do, but like everything else on an LT1 it can be a pain sometimes. It's nothing too difficult, but even after draining it as much as you can sometimes you still end up getting an antifreeze bath and busted knuckles

I have installed everything on my car myself from heads and cam to full suspension and I swear, the only thing I have done to my car engine wise that went as smoothly as planned was changing the MAP sensor!
