Radiator Swap?

I am in need to replace the radiator in my 1979 Ford Bronco 400/c6. and plan on installing a 429ci somtime this year so i want one that can handle the dutys of cooling off a 429ci. but they dont have a 429/460 radiator listed for a bronco. So I was woundering if a 1979 F-Series radiator for a 460 bolt up to my bronco? so i dont waste my money to keep the 400 cool then months later have to find one to cool a big block.

Thank you for your Feedback!

Radiator Swap?

I would have to say yes about the radiator, but I don't know about the fan shroud.
