Daz Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Can I use this radiator with my turbo LS 4.8 build ? Its brand new and the PO gave it to me when I bought the car, he was going to use it for his SR20 build. Its about 3" wide and fits in the stock location !

ColtGT4g63 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 That looks like a beefy radiator, I'm sure it would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4nsm0l3m4n Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I run a radiator designed for the V6 chevy G10 van (rock auto part number CU954). http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/moreinfo.php?pk=272157 I found it after my JTR radiator plastic end tanks started leaking. JTR builds their radiators custom but I wanted an off-the-shelf, no custom fabrication solution in case I ever needed to replace the radiator quickly. After much searching I found that this van radiator core is the exact same length and width as the JTR radiator so it fits their mounts pretty well. The core thickness is a little thinner (1.25 vs 1.375 I think) but so far I've done several autocross events in pretty hot weather and have not seen the temp go up at all. A word of caution, if anyone ends up ordering one be careful. There are a LOT of different van radiators available so its easy to order the wrong one by accident. Make SURE you check the size, width, thickness AND end tank design of the core you are ordering to make sure you get the right one. Otherwise it wont fit at all.
