In speaking with Be cool they make two radiators for a 79
with the transmission cooler built in..The exact fit is No 62003 and being I have a/c he recommended No 62029 but didn't know if any modifications had to be made..

I have a Griffin in my 82. It was easy bolt in and go. I'm in Arizona and the alum radiator is one of the BEST things I have done to my Corvette.
