not yet, but theres a brand new radiator (2core) for 50 bucks in this 4cyl at pik-a-part and it looks identical to the one in my 5.0, so i wanna double check with you guys if the radiators will swap out, i know the capacity for cooling system is greater in 5.0, but could that just be in the engine jackets and heater system? or is it an actually bigger radiator...

thanks

Same part.

87-89 4-bangers with A/C use the same rad as a 5.0.

non-a/c cars have a single core rad

Just make sure your old brackets are in good shape -- the 4-cylinders use different mounting brackets.
