Default radiator for b18a1 swap in eg

I'll very soon be putting my LS motor into my EG and was wondering which rad to use? I'll eventually be boosting and will for sure upgrade before then, but I'm a little tight on cash right now and would prefer to reuse the eg's rad if possible. It's not like the LS makes gobs of power so I assume this would be fine, but I want to make sure. Does anyone have any numbers for the amount of power the EG radiator can cool safely? The car is an LX, but I think the radiators are the same for all EG's (except maybe cx and vx).

yup. that's the one i'm considering getting, but I'd rather do it later than sooner. Good to hear I can use the stock one for now. Can anyone else confirm this?

That stock one will be fine until you want to upgrade at a later time.

Not sure if its the same on EG's, but on my 96 DX I bought a radiator for an automatic trans equipped car and it was a 2 row instead of a 1 row. I used that on a B18B and I am now using it on my B16B. No trouble so far.....I also live in Phoenix, so if it was goign to over heat it would have by now.
