TBI to TPI swap, few questions...

Ok, I'm in the process of swapping out a L03 to a 350 w/ TPI (S.D.) Can I use the water pump and radiator from the 305 TBI to cool the modified 350 TPI? That radiator just seems small to me....thanks-

the water pump and radiator are identicle assuming that they both were serpentine to begin with. i see no problem.
----------
the TPI radiator is just a tad thicker, but i dont see it making that much difference.
