Re: 1987 R20 Suburban LQ4 4L80E swap

Very nice old burb project! Looks like you’re off to a good start too. Curious as to why you’re choosing to go with an aftermarket radiator instead of using the original radiator that was already in this Suburban (especially, if it was the big 4 core radiator that are typically found in BBC Suburban’s)? The big old copper radiators cool much better than the aluminum radiators anyway. Also curious about the reasoning for the Dakota Digital cluster? They look absolutely cool as heck but I can’t justify the price they’re asking for them. The cluster really doesn’t need to be changed to an expensive aftermarket cluster when doing this kind of swap although a lot of people think it does. I still use the original clusters 3 square bodies that have received late model engines.

Looks like a nice dealership to work in! Looking forward to more
