Does this radiator fit into an ecoboost?

The EBPP is said to have a larger radiator which I had always assumed was just the GT radiator. But I don't know if that's true. You could probably look it up in the parts catalog.

There was one locally I was going to try and snag up, but it don't fit, and I doubt I need extra cooling anyway.

Answer is no, eco radiator is approx 5” shorter than the GT radiator according to upgraded radiators found through Full Race......unless you are also considering an intercooler upgrade and want to move things around.
That's correct as you can see in the picture below. I switched to an ETS IC that mounts up front that freed up the space below, but stock EBPP radiator haven't had any issues keeping things "cool" even setting in traffic when temps hit near 120 degrees.

Like Bull Run said, the PP radiator is more than enough for the EB, at least it is for me. With where I am and how I drive, the coolant temp needle rarely moves more than a third of the way up the gauge, and it's never reached halfway. If I ever need to replace my rad, I might look for the smaller one just to save a couple pounds of weight.

I have the base ecoboost radiator, not the PP. but since the radiator in question won't fit no, no biggie. I think mine will be just fine, I just dog it on the road/on ramps lol. it gets plenty of cooling I'm sure on highway

If you lived next door, I might offer to swap radiators.

Why would you downgrade from pp to base?

To reduce weight, especially front end weight.
