Pep Boys Doesn't Sell a 3-core Radiator for 5.0's?!?!? Need quick response

Yeah I would go ahead and get the one for A/C b/c somehow I think that one is equipped for better cooling. Only difference is that it has an extra line spout that comes with a plug you can use (but maybe that's the only difference so maybe you don't need to. I would just ask them to show you both and then make your decision from that)

I removed my condenser for better air flow to radiator and less weight (HA! less weight, that's almost a joke. That condenser has gotta be less than 2 lbs--much lighter than I thought). I don't have air now so it's just a waste of space. Very easy to remove.

I'm about 90% sure if it has the fittings for trans cooler, but if you go to PEp Boys, you can see for yourself.
