The LT1's have some odd supply and return hose connections, because of the "reverse flow" cooling system. Couple that with the fact that the front end structure of the 4th Gen is totally changed from the front end structure of the 3rd Gens - total suspension and unibody redesign - and I'd say you need to make some measurements before jumping to that conclusion.Fred

It's pretty close. The LT1 radiator is about 2" narrower than the 3rd gen radiator. It's also about 1/4" thicker. Height is the same. Inlet hose size is the same, it's a couple inches lower than the third gen. Outlet hose size on the lt1 radiator is smaller (by 1/4") and is a little higher. I notice in your sig that you're swapping in an lt1, so the size and locations of the radiator hoses should match up with what you're trying to do. Good luck with you project, and keep us updated!Dave
