Default 00' Si is it a 2 row radiator????

Having to replace the radiator on my EM1 this weekend and I found one at Autozone for 93.99 and its 1 row? I know the radiators are pretty small in a Civic but what I'm wondering is the stock radiator for B16 is only one row right? Also any tips and tricks for replacing it... Looks pretty straight forward right, drain, pull out, then swap fans and all should be good right? There isn't a transmission coolant line attached to the radiator right?

the si is a one row.

you should buy the automatic radiator as it's thicker. autos use transmission coolant line so it's almost twice as wide for a little more money. if you get the auto version just plug off the transmission line

Thanks for your help man! Are you suggesting the auto radiator strictly for the performance aspect? Also would I have any problems fitting in the automatic radiator if I went with that one?

auto raidiator strictly for performance reasons, you have no need for the tranny coolant line. there are no fitment issues or like teamworx ek9 said vtec sol works, but i think the auto ek is cheaper

oh crap you have an SI i just realized that I think the si's already have a bigger radiator than other trims but the auto radiator is definitely a wider upgrade to 5 speed dx,lx,ex,hx, etc and it might be just as wide a as the si but not sure im trying to search for that right now sorry for the confusion
