Chasing some experience with fitting the radiator to the rear when running the ls1 engine. Where is the best place to fit the electic water pump? Does the mechanical pump need to be removed? My current setup is working ok but not %100 sold that its the best way. Thanks

I ran a second radiator on the tray of my GU with the TD42. For me I just plumbed it into the heater lines with some small mods just to open up the heater outlets. I didn't use an electric pump either and it worked a treat. If you are only running a single radiator then you won't have any problems.

give some more details on that Steve, did you just run the 2nd radiator off the heater hoses?
