Working also on a G-body (grand prix) but interested on that thermostat housing. Is it from a Chevy small block?

[@robertchalk8193]

Whats the part number to those rubber bushings

[@josecervantes9708]

What type of ac compresor did you put? Brackets?

[@GonzosGarage]

Its just a amazon special. And yes it has a built in trans cooler.

Great content 👍🏽 I'm doing a 5.3 ls swap in my gbody and did you have any issues with the usage of those fans?

[@GonzosGarage]

Zero issues. I think I put a link in the description to the setup I used

[@ruccimack97]

@@GonzosGarage ok👍🏽 Another question, what degrees thermostat is great to use for this setup?

[@GonzosGarage]

I ran a 180 and the car never gets over 185

@@GonzosGarage ok great👍🏽 Thanks alot for the info bro, I've read so many good and bad comments about this radiator, fans and strout so I'm trying to gather up all the right information to have mines so again... Thx!👍🏽👍🏽

[@GonzosGarage]

@@ruccimack97 if the fans are wired properly with relays and the properly sized wire they work fine but are not high end fans. As far as the quality of the radiator and fan shroud, best bang for ur buck u can find.

[@jhawkins451]

How is this radiator holding up?

[@GonzosGarage]

Good. I've used it in multiple vehicles.

[@jhawkins451]

@@GonzosGarage thanks I'm ordering now

[@mikearnold4198]

What is that 90° hose that you have on there ?

[@GonzosGarage]

I bent a piece of metal rod in the shape i needed the hose to be and went to the parts store with it. Matched it up and it worked out for me.

[@mikearnold4198]

Thanks man your page is awesome been a big help on my cutlass build

[@mikearnold4198]

Hey boss did you have to modify the radiator I order the one with fans off of your link and it seems like it's too big

[@GonzosGarage]

@@mikearnold4198 I did not. I checked the link and it says it's for the MonteCarlo like I have. I ordered it from Amazon. I'll check the measurements on mine tomorrow

[@mikearnold4198]

Right on man
