    Question Barbs on radiator?

    Hey,

    Probably a stupid/obvious question; what are the two barbs on one of the tanks on the radiator for? Are they to run as a trans or p/s cooler as well?

    If you have a manual, you won't use them.

    Thought so, yeah I have manual, does it cool fluid very much? I'm thinking bout running p/s through it if the cooling is decent enough.

    Cause it gets extremely hot as you know specially when going hard and am sick of it leaking and overflowing. Specially once I put new pump on, wanna give it a good life and why not optimise the barbs in radiator?
