With the radiators I've come access all have transmission cooler and engine oil cooler port but the truck has neither, so can I still use a radiator with those port still there, is there anything I need to do with the port or does anyone know what radiator part number I need without the ports?

I would just plug the ports and use it.

That's how my GTO came.

To consolidate parts numbers even new radiators sometimes come with oil coolers when not needed. Plug it or not doesn't effect anything.

So than I can just leave those ports open as is and it won't leak than. I was wonder if it would leak if I would leave them open or not.
