is the original radiator in a cj3a big enough for a 225 v6? has anyone tried this? I have herd that mid sixty's mustang radiators fit good but all the ones I have seen look to be to tall.
thanks for any help. Harry |

The oddfire rad is the same size as the L-134 rad. Problem with the stock 3A L134 rad is the inlet/outlet tubes are opposite from the V6 reqmts.

If the radiator has enough capacity for the engine swapping the inlet/outlet is an easy fix for a competent radiator shop....that's what I would do if I knew I had a good radiator.

It will work if in good shape.
Moving the lower hose outlet is easy. Upper can stay as is. Might consider changing out the top neck so you can go to modern 16lb cap as well.
