Ok, Ive been reading, and cant seem to find any really good info on radiator's use. Ive found 19'by22 or 22 by19. Im got my luv on a 1986 ranger frame along with the 2.9 fuel inj motor. I want to put a V8 rad in it, better cooling and i plan on puting a bigger motor in it later so i want a bigger one. Ill read if you guys put me in the right way, i just cant seem to find where to read. so just let me know thanks!

I think the reason your not finding a definitive size and configuration is because everyone seems to have taken their own path. There are dozens of possible radiators, mounting locations, electrical/manual fan, etc. It's hard to nail it down to the "best" setup.

Yea, I was gona buy a 22x19 radiator, but desided to try the old luv radiator instead. Haha If it dont work ill just rip it out and put a bigger one in. My next swap will need a bigger radiator and trying to gather info to not cut up my core support twis. haha
