    Default vz radiator

    hey, is it possible to fit an all alloy radiator for an ls1 in the sv6? obviously with custom hoses to and from the radiator.

    cheers

    I was more thinking that if they are similar, putting in an all alloy radiator. I don't think you can buy an alloy radiator for the sv6.

    you would need a to make sure its from a vz ls1 or ls2 for it to fit as as vt-vy ls1 radiators had the top hose at the top not half way down
    they only issue is you will have 2 radiator caps
