Re: Maybe a dumb question but some please help.
Is your RS a v6 car? And if so is the firebird radiator from a 2.8 or 3.1 car? Doesn't make sense since they should be the exact same rad. I'd double check on his rad. I think your better off with a new rad, you can get one from rockauto.com for $91.
Good luck
Alex
