Question Compatibility Issues?

Is their any compatibility issues in using brass fitting in a aluminium radiator. I know their are some issues in using disimilar metals, but in this case is there? Fittings are connections to tranny cooler.

None that I have ever seen or heard of. I think copper and brass don't work too well together, but I've never seen anything about brass and aluminum.

I have used brass fittings and plugs in aluminum intakes and heads for years with no problems.
