What Comprised the Factory V08 "Heavy-duty cooling system" on early 3rd gens?
In looking at the available options on 84s (& 82s and 83s I think) RPO V08 Heavy Duty Cooling System is listed as:
It was not avail w/ L69. Based on my searches there were 2 radiators available, 26" and 21". The different radiators may have also been a part of the C60 (air) option as well or maybe different engines. But there must have been two(2) components at least with the V08 given the 2 different prices. Perhaps a different radiator AND fan? Other item(s)?
My '84 V6 has C60 (air), a 26" radiator (I think, need to verify) and a three(3) blade fan. It does NOT have V08 Heavy Duty cooling.
Code:
V08 - $70 without C60 (air) V08 - $40 with C60 (air)
My '84 V6 has C60 (air), a 26" radiator (I think, need to verify) and a three(3) blade fan. It does NOT have V08 Heavy Duty cooling.

The air dam was determined on if you had the aero package or not but wasn't special to the HD cooling.
No oil cooler was on mine.
