Which radiator s everyone using for an LS swap with auto trans cooler built in? Novak suggest and external trans cooler but my OEM AC condenser doesn’t leave room for this option.

Sort of related, I just bought the three core Chevy-swap Jeep CJ radiator from champion radiators. Price wasn’t too bad and it came with an electric fan (black Friday), and it has an internal trans cooler. That being said, I have no idea how it performs, as I’m still mid swap with my Toyota diesel. It fits in the stock location no trouble though.

I used a radiator that can in my conversion kit from Advanced Adapters. I also used a B+M stand alone automatic transmission cooler with it's own fan. I also installed the Vintage air,heat and defrost system.

I am using a BeCool dual pass. No trans cooler option.

I've run a couple of different options with the Hemi. The best setup ended up being a Ron Davis aluminum with an external trans cooler.
