Auto EK radiator is twin core.
Slightly thicker.
Its obvious when they're lined up side by side.
Same dimensions otherwise, same mounting points (I think).
Manual EK is single core (and thinner because of it).
Also, theres a small heat exchanger at the bottom.
Very low profile, basically a length of pipe which runs through the radiator ends.

Yes, if you have an auto EK, you already have a trans cooler.
Look at the bottom of the radiator.
There'll be some small diameter (6-8mm) tubes.

Not sure. Unless you got a 350 small block shoe horned into the civic
I don't think you'll be needing this.
If you've got overheating problems, look elsewhere. Flush and bleed the air out of the
cooling system might help.
Removing the rubber strip on the cowling is said to drop temperatures a bit, but I havn't needed to do this.
Nick.
