It's mentioned in this thread, it helped me find what I needed last week. I didn't have a local auto parts that carried Gates, so I ended up with a Dayco C71588 for the upper and a D70649 for the lower. I had to cut the expanded end off the lower, and trim the upper some too. If anybody has found a better fit, please post part numbers.

I'm using a Griffin universal LS 31x19" radiator. Made my own upper brackets.

Thanks man! Let me know if you need more info.

Update: I ended up having a leak on my first radiator that I couldn't find. I called Summit Racing, & found out, that I had a 2 year warranty. They shipped me a brand new one with no questions asked. Also, those 16" Spal fans cool so well, I don't think the second fan has ever turned on
