I did a little digging with the search feature but didn't find much. I've recently swapped a V8 in my MJ and put the stock 4.0 cooling system back on temporarily. Now it's time to find a fix. The way this engine fits in it may as well be a 4.0, the clearances around the front are about the same.
So.. it looks like the stock radiator dimensions have more surface area than a conventional squarish radiator that could be made to fit. I've thought of notching the crossmember and dropping an aluminum rad in, but it can only be so wide without hitting the power steering box.
Is the BeCool stock dimensioned radiator considered the ultimate cooling solution for this chassis? I like the part, but not the price.. and if I cut out the xmember and drop in a generic aluminum, the fan fit will be a b1tch.
