Hi I am new to this forum and am not sure if this has been put in a thread previously, but i'm putting an automatic m10 back into my 80' US 320i. my radiator has nowhere to put them in, so im wondering if they came with an intercooler type thing that the guy i bought it from didn't give me,
Thank you!

The auto has its own rad, where the pipes usually go in and cool the transmission fluid. In the past though, I have seen regular rads fitted and the pipes simply joined, with no ill effects.
