it is a stock 5.3 radiator, fits like a glove. gmcski and i both got an intercooler upgrade, i think it is 1/3 bigger than the standard kit and only works with electric fans. there is no direct rating but from the rating on similar sized units i would say turbonetics would rate it at 600-700hp. not exactly sure how they come up with a rating though, i am sure it would go higher, just doesn't work as well.

i got prety excited when i found out this unit would fit. that is untill i looked up the price , list is $2800. it would be great if you found me a deal. if i was going custom the size might be slighty diferent but those dimentions would be close.

I think Griffin will make custom intercoolers. Maybe they'd be cheaper.
