In theory anyway this should not work, but I wish you luck with it.
The Corolla radiator will be rated to remove the heat caused by a 120 hp engine, maybe less. The SVX radiator is rated to remove the heat from double the hp. Two radiators of similar or even the exact same size can have very different cooling capabilities, based on the number of liquid columns and the area of metal that the air flows through.
I would not use it as a long-term fix, but the best of luck anyway.
