FYI on the radiator, on my 86 when I swapped in the LT1 I measured the stock radiator and ordered a aluminum radiator from Summit. They have universal ones in various sizes, When I ordered mine they were less than 200 bucks. I made some brackets out of 1 inch angle aluminum. Late model Camaro fans bolt up to it like they were made for it. Use a stand alone trans cooler and you will have a bullet proof cooling system for cheap.
I'll go snap a pic, the radiator is out of the truck now.
