I have a 1995 VERT LT1. What brand/spec coolant is recommended for the LT1 cooling system?

this is when dex-cool became standard... however, there is this "new" green that is compatiable with both old an new styles of coolants.

Prestone makes its. Autozone sells it. Good stuff. Works fine.

My 95 had factory fill of green type. I flushed it and used the G05 which is the same as the new anti-freeze that can be used with both types of anti-freeze. Just use distilled water with any type of anti-freeze.
