Default Radiator ?
I bought my car and the previous owner says it has an lt1 style radiator... (2000 LS1 Trans Am). The radiator has no top support on it and has on oval filter where the old lid would be. The radiator seems to be alot closer to the motor than I recall on my old T/A. When I try to move the radiator back it feels solid though. I will take some pics tomorrow so that you can see what I am talking about. I just wanted to know how far off of the motor the radiator usually sits. Thanks.
