    Exclamation Question about my radiator

    I recently bought a brand new eg radiator from RCautoworks, and I had a question about it.

    Will my new eg radiator fit into my 97 civic ex coupe? I only ask because there are two brass or copper lookin pipes coming out of the bottom of the radiator. I dont know where these are supposed to go!!

    Do I weld, cap, or bolt them onto something? Let me know if you know!!!

    Thanks,
    civ97

    yup it will fit fine...assuming that eg and 97 civics use the same radiator. u can cap them if u want to but its not necessary. nothing will come out. theyre just for a tranny cooler and if u have a manual then its just wasted space lol they just put them there bc its easier and cheaper to produce one radiator for both manual and autos then two diff ones

    plug them up though..well cap them off at least.


    I guess if u wanted to, you could use them for a power steering cooler.
