    Aloha, I watched his you tube video, what a piece of craftsmanship. Does anyone have
    any pictures of where he mounted the radiator? In the video it appears that there is a water line running from the goose neck over to the driver's side of the engine.
    thank you!!

    Sorry I do not have any additional photos to share, but Coop's setup is for a 350 Chevy engine. The chassis may be Mopar, but he used this for his power plant!

    Bvrwally,

    Thank you!! I installed a LS1 and the cooling is ok but I was using a push fan and it was getting to the 200* level. I like Coop's idea. Does anyone know if he was happy with this design?

    Thank you guys for the help. One link leads to another and I found all the answers. A C6 rad with tranny cooler slanted using the overflow tank as the filler. There is full picture documentation and yet this is the first one I have seen don this way, brilliant. Coop is on talented artist and his van shows great vision!!
