Hey guys im new to the third gen sceen. My radiator is leaking, and my buddy has a v6 firebird rad. he said hell give me, but the hose holes are on the opposite sides then the camaro.

do i just buy firebird hoses or will it not work??

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

if your car is either a 2.8 or 3.1 it will work but if its a v8 it wont the hoses hook up on the opposite side of the radiator on a v8
