88 V8 radiator for 85 V6 Firebird?

Will the radiator for a 1988 Firebird V8 work with a V6 engine for a 1985 Firebird?

Nope. The top and bottom hoses are reversed as well as the filler cap, heater hose connection, trans cooling etc., and the radiator is sized differently.

Another words, they are nothing alike.
