I, can anyone shed some light on how to remove the radiator from my ve ssv. I've got everything unbolted at the top and as far as I can see down the sides and seems loose enough but some thing is holding it form coming out. Also does the trans cooler some out with it or do I disconnect the trans lines thanks.

It shouldn't be too hard. I've only done one in a V6 but surely they are much the same.
Yes undo all the trans cooler lines from the rad and make sure you've unbolted the aircon condensor from the front of rad ie hiding on the grille side of rad and any bolts down the sides. Don't undo the gas pipes from condensor!
Then pull the rad up to release the locators from the rubber mounts at the bottom.
The cooler lines are a bit tricky first time.
