Some good things happened today.................Good stuff.....The wiring harness arrived from Speartech......and....as usual ....John did a beautiful job......Plug and Play.......Then the headers showed up.......got one side installed before it got to be Nap time......The headers are full length Flowmasters and I got the passenger side in with just a few minor issues....I'll work on the Drivers side tomorrow.........
On the downside.......The Griffin Radiator I ordered (it was originally ordered to replace the unit in my 66 Impala LS powered car) was of a stock radiator hose configuration which worked in the Impala.........But......after getting the radiator roughly located and positioned in the car for the first time.......It was obvious that the angled air inlet of the LSA engine and the upper hose were fighting for the same space.........Darn!!!..........So I ordered another Radiator from Griffin.......except this one is designed for the LS with both hose fittings on the passenger side and is of a crossflow design...........Oh well......Back to plan "A" and it will go in the Impala and the new one for the Chevelle......
