Champion Radiators - '86 K10
Was thinking of picking up a 4-row model radiator from Champion for my 86 K10 and noticed it( new radiator) has an integrated transmission cooler. I don't believe my current truck (a 4-speed manual) has this. Do I simply not hook it up if that's the case? I'm confused.

Correct. It shouldn't leak, and there is no fluid going through it.

make sure to plug it though, as pests like to make homes in them.

We build ours with a trans cooler at no charge when requested, but most manual trans customers ask for them to be made without the cooler (gives back a little more coolant space, and less stuff to plug). Here is the one we make:

Re: Champion Radiators - '86 K10
no problem, I completely understand. There are definitely cheaper overseas versions out there, and we hope to fill a void with a USA made version. if there is anything we can help with in the future, please let us know (even if you decide not to buy from us)
