As you can see from the last photo in the linked thread. The radiator is actually about 3 inches offest to the driver side of the bay so only half of the filter is blocking it.

Hey Jack, If you want come over today, I am working on a turbo engine, and another auto matic GXL, while redoing my rotors on the MP3.


I am also going to pull the engine out of my GLH-S, hopefully.


Let em know, any i will give you my number and directions, if you want.

I am think 4:30 or 5 is good for me.

PS: I you have a sawzaw bring it, I would like to give that thing a try.

Samps that is really a good idea. I have one question though i still have my ac system and the i saw where you cut the whole out when i checked on my car. My question is can you still do your mod with the ac in place, or is there anywhere else to cut a whole out of in that area? I have an 88 and my AFM is a real pain in the *** do you think this will affect me at all? Im serioulsy considering your setup cuz i need some cold air into my engine, just worried about the ac system

I saw that the rad was moved, but it looked all around smaller. Are they the same size in NA and TII?

The radiator is still in the stock location. I had only moved it during the cutting process. I have no idea if the NA and turbo radiators are the same, but I’m guessing they are identical. I cannot see how this mod could be done while keeping the AC. The AC lines occupy all of the good spots to run the large tube. It would be a difficult job to reroute the AC lines. I actualy used one of the vacant holes left from the AC to start the saw-zaw through. I have removed alot of stuff and it’s hard to remember exactly where everything was. I’m just typing really short sentances.
