Free or cheap "mods", with dyno results

And is there a difference in the fans?
Between the police ones and regular ones?

Did the four core radiator drop right in?
Living in Vegas I could use more cooling.
What mods had to be done to fit it?

Yes, but I got the tall one from a one ton, so I had to take the upper brackets as well, the stock ones won't work. There is a short 4 core option that drops right in with the stock half ton brackets

And is there a difference in the fans?
Between the police ones and regular ones?

I don't know, just know that mine came from an Interceptor and was badass. Had to change fans after the 454 swap though, the block sits farther forward so there wasn't enough room for it.

where do I find the short 4 core?
Been looking for one.

Junkyard. That's where i got mine. It's out of a 2002 avalanche

 

[lowreese26]

Cool.
That's easy.
Thank you.

I'll probably be updating this in the near future. I bought a Yukon and plan on lightly modding it since it will be my daily driver.

what kind of real gains did you see just from the bb tb swap?

 

[VorTecxas]

I don't have any dyno evidence on the TB alone, but it was much better throttle response and easier cruising. I didnt have to throttle it as much to keep up speed

Ok sounds good.. I plan on shaving the throttle body plate.. Making a cold air and changing my exhaust.. How did you do your exhaust with the 4 o2 sensors and cats?
