Advice on radiator...dual core auto radiator?
So I got a sweet deal on a radiator, but I think it may be an automatic radiator or something...it's EG/Dual Core, but it's got these two little brass things that stick out of the back...I heard they go to an oil cooler or something of the sort?
Anyway, what can I do to block these off? Would just plugging them/tightening with hose clamps suffice?
Looking for ideas

No, you do not have to do anything to them. The oil/transmission cooler part of the radiator has its own container (made of brass). You can block them if you want but it is blocking nothing. Yes, you can use as a oil cooler, but I do not recommend it. If you want a oil cooler (besides the stock one) get a fin style cooler (a transmission/ oil cooler). They work a lot better and they are better for long trips. Make sure that you put the cooler on the radiator were the fan can cool it when you are idling.
