I ordered an aluminum Fluidyne radiator and I was looking at the shipping invoice and I noticed that I was sent a radiator for an automatic 94-95 GT by mistake. Is this going to make a difference with installation? I have a procharger with a 2-row, in case thickness matters. So, if it fits, I'm not going to bother sending it back.

The only difference should be that the auto rad has the trans cooler fittings. The fluidyne will be thicker than stock but the added thickness is on the engine side of the core support.

Hey good choice on the fluidyne. Ive had good luck with mine. The only problem i had was the drain petcock was leaky when i put it in. But that was an easy fix!

I got the one From Steeda. It is made by the same people who make NASCAR radiators. The fit and finish was perfect on it. It is a true bolt in. I didn't have modify a thing.

Yeah mine too. Do yourself a favor and wrap the petcock in teflon tape before you install the radiator or it will drip coolant.

How much do those radiators run? Mine has been running a little hotter than usual. Must be the underdrive pullies. But I was thinking about looking for a better radiator.
