Default LS-swapped thirdgens? (esp. turbocharged)??

Hey all, for those of you with turbocharged '82-'92 F-bodies, I'm hoping that you might be able to help me out by providing pictures and/or measurements. I'm looking to buy a radiator, & I'm hoping to see how much room there is (between the radiator, FEAD, turbo plumbing, etc.) for fans, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Here's mine. I dropped the factory size rad down 2" so I could push it forward and under the upper rad support. That opened up alot of room.

Nice build, LS1-IROC.

Anyone else?? I'm really hoping to get an idea (ideally, a measurement) of how much room there is for fans...

Thanks all.
