I am still not sure what to do about radiator.... here in the desert the heat is a huge concern. I believe these new motors require more cooling than a regular SBC. I am looking at a few from Summit that are "designed" for LS conversions, so again just wanted to check with a few knowledgable members here.

thanks again & best of luck with the build finish!!
NP..... Yes the radiator I have is for a LS conversion, both hoses are on the same side so the water passes thru the radiator twice and has the steam port on it.
