I'm running a 27x8x3 small intercooler. I didn't Wana restrict too much flow to my radiator as my car sees a lot of street miles.
And I kept the crash bar with out modifications.
Iats are good but I'm also running dual nozzle meth.

I don't have a GTO but its pretty well the same front end.

eBay 31x12x3" here aswell, works fine and no cutting required. 3" in and out.

If you want something a little better, check out the Treadstone TRSTD9. You can lean the radiator forward a little and go over the top.
