lt1 and ls1 radiator are the same thing minus the fact that the ls1 is about 1/4" narrower and doesnt have the coolant sensor plugs from 99-up. the hoses are all in the same place however

Ahh, i was looking at pictures on google images and it seemed to be a little different. I could swear the inlet and outlet is on opposite sides. But I'll take your word for it, thanks

But is the hose inlet and outlet in the same locations or different? I'm trying to figure out which one would be best to route the hoses to make the most room for my front mount turbo
