I've never owned a ppv, but my I did a swap from a 4.8 to a 6.0. I later had to buy another radiator and they're all the same size--4.8, 5.3 and 6.0. Maybe go to a parts store and ask if they have any option listed for a heavy duty cooling for your year vehicle.

Spectra CU2370 should be a direct fit onto your vehicle. It has all the accessories (oil cooler + trans cooler, fittings, TB coolant caps, etc) needed and is the wider 34" core.

Like Tony said, all GMT800's and 900's use a very similar radiator, and the CU2370 is made to fit all of them.

I think they all should bolt up the same way.

They all mount up the same. Two bushings on the bottom and then the two bolts up top onto the front support.

Yes, there are a lot of different PN's available. I found over 10, but when you overlay them, they all have the same footprint and mounting positions. Be careful of the aluminum ones, as some have questionable fitment, from my experience. I think there should be one affordable aluminum one that will fit coming to market pretty soon.

Aren't they all aluminum? The centers anyway.

Yea, the cores are usually a mix of aluminum/copper/brass. That's why they're brazed together. I was referring to the aluminum endtank ones. They usually don't come very well built, with the wrong transmission fittings, wrong endtank dimensions, and poor performing oil/trans coolers.
