I would think that would work. I,m using the stock ecotec radiator from the car i got engine from. Its a single core and maybe 3/4 inch thick. |

I have been running a Fierro radiator for years. The inlet and outlets are oriented correctly and it is very ample for my 3.3. They are an easy size to locate too. Just another one to consider. |

I run the jeep radiator on the s/c ecotec and have never had any problems. You can pick a used one up on eBay cheap I got 2 for like 20 bucks. But it is the one out of a 4.0 which is dual core. |

Well went and picked up car. I got it in my shop raised hood and thought that motor does not look like the pics on here. Called work to run vin. It was a 2.4 2001 model. Called the girl I bought it from, and told her it was not the year she had advertised. Loaded it back on the trailer brought it back, and got my money. Back to looking for a donor. |
