Re: '82 Shortbed 6.0 project

Hey man, nice build! I'm currently getting parts together for my build. I bought an 86 with 6.0 and 4l80e already in it to put in my 85. Sorry if this was posted earlier but what radiator did you use?

i used the LS1 camaro/trans am radiator and electric fans with an auxiliary B&M trans cooler.. it seems to work well right now, BUT im worried i might have to have something a little bigger for this TX heat. guess we'll see if it can keep up when summer hits.
