  • auto radiator to a manual trans car

    what i need to know is if an auto trans radiator will bolt in place of a manual trans radiator with no modification and will the cooling fan assembly bolt up to the auto radiator without any mods.
    mine has started leaking and since i have decided to put air conditioning in, i will go for the auto rad for the better cooling.

      Should be a direct fit. Most places dont even sell replacement MTX rads because the auto rad is the exact same thing except thicker.

        It'll fit and bolt in the same as the MTX one.

          yes, an auto radiator can be used for both auto and manual trans, but a manual radiator can ONLY be used in a manual, as it does not have the oil cooling lines.

              also the fan may be a tighter fit because it is a thicker radiator.
