Ok. Anybody able to confirm? A 2000 4.0 radiator wouldn't work?

Those are the ports for the automatic transmission fluid cooler. With your truck being a manual, you don't need to worry about those.

Okay so if I don't have to worry about them then that means I need to plug them correct? What would I plug those with

a bolt with the same threads would work fine.

Needing a bigger rad on a 2.9 is typically a sign you have other stuff going wrong.
Last time you flushed AND back flushed the block?
Dirt that the factory left in the block = blown heads.
