The old and new GM cooler lines before modification. The shorter line must be cut to allow the hoses to be installed. The part that goes into the radiator will be a short stub with a 90. Use 2 clamps on each hose.

This is a Jesus clip, and holds the cooler line into the radiator. Have extra on hand, you will lose at least 1.

The cooler mounted on the aluminum flat bar. The holes have to be elongated slightly because the bolts on the bumper are not parallel.

Cut the return line pipe where you see the 2 black lines. The new cooler is plumbed in between these 2 points. The stub goes into the lower radiator port.

This is where it gets tough. You can easily lift the left side of the dash to get some access to the sensor, but it is difficult. If you wiggle the dash section forward and back it loosens a little, but not much, and didn't come entirely loose for me. If anyone knows how to loosen the right side of this section please comment. Note- make sure the speaker wires are in the clear when reattaching the dash.
