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

Good stuff to know about the trans cooler, thanks! If it won't have any effect on cooling I'll just stick with this stock 3 core I found then!
