I always see em on whenever tranny coolers are goin on or efans or such are bein mounted to rad. I forgot sort of zip ties or radiator ties. Maybe try Flex-a-lite, Perma-Cool, Hayden; somethin like that. My bad, I thought u needed more. You just wanted the name?!? Hope I gave ya some ideas.

Yeah, I just got the ls1 fans today. Damn great deal, great shape $55 shipped. Couldn't really pass up the opportunity to get the clutch fan off. It started to annoy me. But yeah, I want those ties to attach the top of the fan shroud to the radiator.

I posted on a trans cooloer thread like 6 months ago about those. That's what I used for the cooler and fans on my blazer. Work GREAT.
Called Mounting Rods if I remember right.

be careful in the placement of them... Mine bounced around for like 2 years, and eventually rubbed a hole in the radiator core. So I had to upgrade to the 05 setup....
