Default radiator from an automatic civic on a 5speed...

my car used to be automatic until i got a motor swap and then a new radiator was something i was planning to get but i heard someone say that i should keep the automatic radiator because its more efficient then a stock 5 speed radiator, is this true?

exactly, there is actually no difference exept on an automatic there are 2 posts that stick out to run tranny coolant through. On a standard they dont do anything. A lot of aftermarket radiators come with them
