dude... go to craigslist. Get a 5 speed. No mods needed. But seriously, if you can't afford the manual swap get a transmission cooler as stated above.

The only thing that makes a radiator an Automatic or not is a Trans oil cooler in one of the end tanks on the radiator. If you are handy you can easily rig an external transmission oil cooler.

i agree with the above, plus any after market cooler setup will likely be more efficient anyways.

make sure the transmission cooler is going to be mounted in a position that allot of air is going to flow thru it
