    The same but a few things are different, IE the L body has a differently shaped tank around the filler neck and the fill neck is different IIRC plus the L body has a heater hose nipple.

    I don't think you can because of the filler neck location. You'd have to add a heater hose bung or add a waterpump housing with it or tee it into the lower rad hose like I had to.

    I have a G body IC/rad in my Omni. They don't drop right in, but they fit well. You need to take care of the drivers side bottom mount and also the mounts on the top. Not too huge a project though.

    What about the heater hose issue?

    I run the newer style water pump housing so I just run it like a non-L body car would be run.

    The core dimentions are approx 15x13 for the GLHS and 15x15 for the TII. Remember to mark and clearance the underside of the hood. If you don't you will screw up the filler neck the first time you shut the hood.

    TII Radiator works fine. You have to make some brackets, drill some holes, bent some sheet metal back on the radiator. Straight forward.
