The way the C6 raditor works, is it runs extra tubing in and out down the sides of the raditor side plastic caps. One side can be used for say the trans, while the other side can be use for something else like motor cooling as well. So this not only helps will cooling, but since the tubing is runnning in the coolant voids, allows the engine to warm up the fluid as the raditor fluid is warming up as well.
So in regards to the GS coolers,
- Radiator (with heat exchanger for manual trans, same as auto trans radiator) on the side of the radiator in the plastic side cap.
- Note, on the first Z51's, the other side of the raditor side cap was used for the engine oil cooler.
- Differential heat exchanger - mounted on rear diff, uses trans fluid as cooler, which is in-turn cooled by the radiator heat exchanger
- Oil cooler - air cooled that is in the front fender void area
- Power steering cooler - air cooled that is in front of the HB, behind the raditor.
- A/C condenser, that is in front of the raditor itself
