350/350 turbo in 83 toyota

hi, im new here and have a question for all you guys with the 350 sbc swap.
i have had this truck for about 3 1/2 years, but i havent been able to drive it the past 2 beause i cant drive a stick shift anymore considering ive been put in a wheelchair. so now i want to get back out there and wnted to put an auto in it so i can drive it with hand crontrols. i can get a 350 sbc for free and a 350 turbo with a np208 for a great price. my question is can the factory radiator be left in the factory mounting place?

I dont think it will be enough to really cool your rig. you may want to look into an all aluminium one. Also look up the name Gibby and Crash as they have a 350 build thread on here thats pretty cool. You may have to do some pounding on the firwall too to get the motor to fit back and not interfeer with the dist. I believe. Aside from getting a free 350 the smaller 4.3 would be a reallyu nice option to think about. its a much better fit than the heavy 350
