I'm pretty sure the rad's are the same size for both engines.

theres not a precise way to measure your coolant capacity because you have a swap, or else you could've just looked in your owners manual.

theres ways of doing this without having to make a thread about it... just keep mixing and adding by the rad cap and then start the engine, let the engine warm-up and let the coolant circulate to let all the air out and then top it off.

The EM1 takes 4.8 qts, so it will be about that. Just have a couple gallons (at least one and a half) on hand, it's kinda hard not to spill some.
