It may be a Heavy Duty cooling radiator... Will the transmission lines fit the radiator?... If you don't have the Engine Oil Cooler, then you do not need to worry about hooking it up... The Trans cooler is a diffrent story...

As long as the radiator fits into the space properly and the coolant hoses and transmission cooler lines connect properly, extra cooling sections of the radiator designed for cooling the engine oil can be left disconnected with no problems.

I might suggest maybe filling that section in with oil or something and capping it off to prevent rust from forming within IMO.
