The radiator in my '86 2wd turbo is a 2row.  Just because I am new around here does not mean I am new to auto repair, performance mods, engine design and especially Toyota trucks.  I have  an '81 long bed 4x4 with a 20/22R hybrid, the head is ported and polished, has a stage 2 cam, oversize stainless valves, beehive springs with titanium retainers. It has a Weber 32/36 DGV, Doug thorley tri-y header and is bored .040 over. 

stage 2 what??  TRD ? LC? crane (crane :rofl: as if they make a decent cam for a 22R)
and exactly, your engine is bored .040 i tell everyone that asks me  .040 is as far as they can go and keep the stock cooling system

It would haul my 30 foot (3600 lbs dry) airstream trailer at freeway speeds ALL FREAKING DAY with the stock radiator and not overheat!!

I received an A in a 36 unit college auto repair class in 1982.  Of course completing such a class does not give one the compliment of tools a mechanic needs so I worked in a carb shop for a couple of years and then a head shop for a couple more before operating my own garage for more than 12 years...how is that for flopping info out there YOU MOUTHY BIATCH!!!
