yeah so why don't they

 

I didn't know that automatic and manual radiators were different.

 

well on http://www.optauto.com fluidyne radiators. don't offer any for automatic trans

 

I converted my civic to a manual from an auto, and the radiator had coolant lines that ran to the auto tranny.

this is correct.... There are 2 nipples on the bottom of an auto radiator... I bet the fluidyne doesn't offer their radiators with them...

 

You can pick up an aftermarket oil cooler from B&M for under $40 and then run the Fluidyne.

 

why does your automatic (slow) civic need a fluidyne radiator? I am sure 500 would go a long way towards a manual swap.

 

More then likely the reason they don't make one for an auto Civic is because of the fact that a 5-speed Civic rad is single core and people upgrade those to an auto Civic rad since the auto Civics came with dual core radiators.

We did an LSVTEC swap into a 5-speed Del Sol and ordered a Del Sol Auto Rad since it's dual core and cheap and it cools the car perfectly.

Ok, when I figure out what the hell this has to do with the topic at hand, I will let everyone else know.

 

UMMM maybe because they would lose money. Who would buy a fluidyne rad for an automatic Civic when they already have a dual core rad in the car.

**** I didn't know I had to spell everything out for you buddy. You must have the reading comprehension of a Koala Bear. Does it hurt to think for yourself??

hmmm i don't know but maybe becuase manual is better.

 

Well maybe the REAL reason is there is not enough demand for a auto aftermarket radiator. They are not going to tool a new setup for 3-4 possible sales.

 

just get the tranny cooler seperate..

No but it hurts to figure out why you think like a moron.

Dude, wtf? Nothing you have said has anything to do with this. Autos need a trans cooler, loacted at the bottom of radiator, Fluidynes dont have them. Run an a-market external trans cooler and then the fluidyne will be fine. Did this on my old AUTO Integra.

BTW Koalas can read better than you can, because you weren't able to read what this ******* thread was about.

 

I converted my transmission, and I had to change my radiator...

The automatic radiator is actually larger than the manual one. (In thickness).

I heard that the way to go is to pick up a Del Sol Dual Core. Should be inexpensive and might be a better route.
