Update
Bathrooms are both done, yea, wife had me do other one as well while granite was on its way!!! Anyway back to the car....
Issue is 90 percent fixed, it was two issues, both blocked radiator and bad tstat, I ordered new radiator but misread it somehow and ordered the one for the v6 camaro (doesn’t have the steam port needed for the lt1) so new one on its way, but whilst waiting I went ahead and swapped tstat, temps much better, fans turning on and off at 185 and 177 like they are supposed to ( in my tune) have yet to make 2nd fan come on, but even though everything seems to be working, I went ahead and shot ir gun at rad regardless, found 2 cold spots, both near bottom near center, new rad on its way anyways sob I didn’t cancel it!!!
Took an extended drive in today’s hotter weather, and she never breached 90 on the gauge!
so brought her home and gave her a bath!!!!
Before and after shot.....
