What radiator are you going with and where'd you get it?

[LSM3]

Griffin radiator. I belive summit and jegs carry them.

[Rc 415]

Wouldn't happen to have a p/n would ya?

[LSM3]

Smoothed the engine bay and painted it satin black..



Attached the Sanderson Headers...





Installed the engine...









Surprisingly there is plenty of room in the engine bay. The only thing I did not like was the room between the rear of the block and the firewall...Unfortunately the bell housing is as close as it can get to the firewall so its not going any further back.
