Default 67 chevelle conversion ls2

Installing a ls2 and 4l65 tranny . I was wondering what best radiator for swap would be, and also best front drive assembly for the price ? I also had gotten eldebrock exhaust set up and it doesnt have holes drilled for the o2 sensors. Do i need to install these to tune correctly

A stock radiator will work fine, but if you want something new check out the be cool radiators at summit. Good deal for 300 bucks in my opinion and I run one in my first gen camaro twin turbo setup with good results.

You'll need the o2 sensors for the system to go into closed loop. Summit has collectors with o2 bungs already installed - part number is PTE-H7233.

You just have to check the lower Radiator inlet.. could be the wrong size 1 1/2" vs the Gen III/IV outlet of the pump which usually is 1 1/4" or do something to convert or reduce.

I picked up my Radiator and Fan setup on eBay... $445 at the time...(se set up in my sig). Just about anything will work, just some might be better.. but same rules apply for any engine on cooling.

I ordered an aluminum double pass radiator from Ebay and used fans from a Windstar Van in my 69 GTO (not sure what size rad you would need) (see my build thread for more info)
