Finding the Right Radiator
So I am looking for a new radiator for my '89 f150 4.9l. It has ac and the super cool package. I am finding lots of radiators, but most of they are all built for trucks with automatic transmissions. I know that an auto radiator will work fine, but im thinking that an automatic radiator is going to have space dedicated for transmissions fluid, while the manual is going to use the entire radiator for coolant. So I was wondering if anybody knows where I can get a radiator specific for the 4.9l manual transmission, ac, and super cooling.

All replacements have the ATF cooler. If you don't need it, don't use it. It doesn't affect performance.
