07 Silverado classic. Fits perfectly

Well I've had it on my truck for 2 months now with no problems. When I was looking for this part I had trouble figuring out if it would fit my truck because everyone was telling me it wouldn't. But I studied the photos and they looked exactly like the part I was replacing. So I took a chance and ordered it and am glad I did. I have a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic. 5.3 371.

Extremely poor quality control

I replaced the two clamps at the end of the motor with clamps from the original. 3. I tightened the two zip ties on the end of the cooler to secure it as they were loose and could leak. One of them broke…

Pros
  • Radiator and accessories
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
