FMS Radiator for Manual?

[onefstsnake]

My stock radiator is all rotted out...

Looking for something to replace it with... Aluminum looks nice but its expensive...

The FMS one look great but they dont seem to make one for manual trans.

I want something that will be a direct fit in my 93 Notch.

Something around $300 or cheaper.
Thanks

i think the only difference between the manual and auto ones is the trans cooler isn't it???

yea.

Dont need the cooler though.

Just need the radiator. lol

how direct fit?? i think most of the aluminum one's require atleast modifying the brackets some because there thicker....
here's another aluminum one but it has no tranny cooler...

You can also look online for a nice brass 3-core radiator. I picked up one for $100.00 that is thicker than stock (better cooling.) Mine did come with the Trans cooler, but I am going to set that up as a powersteering cooler over the winter.

I thought all of the OEM radiators had the cooler. They just weren't used on manual cars??? I know I have replaced the radiators on both my foxes and they never asked if they were manual or auto when I was buying them. Most aftermarket aluminum radiators don't have a cooler though.
