well it looks like I may be doing this swap soon and I just have some random thoughts/questions. Resonation is a huge problem with aftermarket exhaust systems and LS engines. what is everyone doing with their systems and are you having any annoying resonation issues? if not what is your exhaust setup?

any reason you cant use the OEM style radiator? the thermostat housing exits out of the engine and into the lower radiator inlet. as far as i know a radiator works just as well if the water is being forced from bottom to top through the radiator. however im no radiator expert.

anyone using a T5 instead of a T56? curious about the clutch/flywheel combo.

thanks

I used the flowmaster system for 2nd gens (1 muffler behind axle)
no headers or cats. I am happy with the sound. Dale
