Re: Ls swap radiator
I'm using a Griffin CU-70013-LS Radiator. Both lower and upper hoses are on passenger side. I have a lower hose that will work but having trouble finding an upper hose.

Re: Ls swap radiator
Yeah I'm just going to give up & move on to the upper hose on the drivers side & just run a 02 Chevy Avalanche upper hose.
Getting ready to pull the trigger on a RnD LS swap radiator with electronic fans. They can build it the way I want it & for 710.00 shipped to my front door. I was just looking for a cleaner look but it's just not working out. Thank you for all your time & I hope you have better luck than I did. Almost forgot what lower hose are you useing & are you useing a LS truck motor? |

Hello trkfrk
Nice setup you have there buddy!! :metal: I don't know if there is any difference on the water pump side between your LS1 & my LQ9 6.0 truck motor? Do you think these hoses would work on my truck motor? I'm more familure with the truck motors. |

I think I'm going to go with the Griffin LS swap radiator as well... How do you like it? Weld quality and Overall quality? Does it have any mounting points? Is the steam port threaded? Thanks |

You won't regret your purchase. It's pricey but you will be happy you spent the extra money. The quality is top notch. Even the fan shroud is welded very well. Yes, the steam port is threaded. I ended up taking the supplied aluminum nipple out and replacing it with a brass nipple with Teflon sealant. Also, make sure your running at least a 30 amp fuse/relays. Those 16" Spal fans pull around 25 amps on start up. Post some pics after your install. Thanks, |

Re: Ls swap radiator
Used R&D with no problem. It also was a little shorter than stock which gave me good clearance for 4" air intake tube across to lower grill on driver's side.

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:metal: |

Re: Ls swap radiator
My griffin leaked. Since It's useless now, thinking about cutting it up to see... any takers? And I'll be going with an RnD soon. I have not read one complaint about his leaking...
