Default Another dumb question

Listers,

Is there a drain peacock on a 2007 C6 radiator? If so, where is it located?

TIA,

Bob Ryan
Gainesville, Va.

No, we dont have peacocks. We do have a petcock though on the bottom passenger side facing the rear.

I dunno, I've seen a few peacocks in Vettes, usually located behind the steering wheel!
