Unless you find a NOS one for manual transmission, you would need to order one from Shops like FSR (Four Season Radiator) for a non-cooler one.

With that said it makes no difference using one with the automatic trans cooler fittings. Nothing will leak out of those fittings if not connected to automatic trans. IMHO there would be no measurable cooling difference with a radiator without them. No need to cap those fittings unless you felt cosmetically it looks better.

Consider this radiator from Cold Case
