2.9 Engine and a 4.0 Radiator?

[Ryannn]

I know it is possible to do my friend did it to his 86 Ranger.
Does it affect your engine in a bad way at all?
Im going to be swapping in a "New" 2.9 into my truck this weekend and if it doesnt have any negative effects I Might as well get one while im at PnP.

Thanks Ryan.

might have to fanaggle some hoses to work, but it wont hurt it.

some people say your engine will "never get up to operating temp" but i call BS so i would do it if you need a radiator too, but i wouldnt spend money on it just because

i run a 4.0 radiator in my bronco with a 2.9 and it heats up just fine.

if your thermostat is working right it won't matter if your radiator is the size of a freight train, it'll still warm up just fine.
