I have to replace my radiator, and I'd like to put in one that will work for now and later when I do this swap. Do you think the stock radiator is enough for cooling this motor?


Hard to say. I had my rad re-cored with a 3-row core 4 or 5 years ago. It's the full 2" or 2.5" thick, whatever the tanks and side brackets are. I will be running an engine driven fan (off an Isuzu 3.2 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />) and think it'll be enough. I'll replace it later if not.

As for what size to replace it with? The biggest you can fit I'd say, but a new core that is full thickness with the stock tanks and side plates should be fine I think. I can't say yet for sure.
