Hey everyone,

a few weeks ago I finally made my dream come true. I bought a Manual 09 CTSV.
Its got a Hennesy HPE650 kit in it and 73k miles on it and ran like a champ.

I live in Germany so its really hard to find any CTSV's at all over here.

My Probem:

I drove the V for a week and boom, started leaking transmissionfluid.
I put her on a lift and found the problem. The lower Transmission cooler Fitting, the one that enters the radiator, was disconnected.
Luckily i did not get any Trannyfluid and Coolant mixed.
The Thread inside the cooler is worn out and the fitting must have been glued on or something.
So now I need a new radiator and new fittings.

My Questions:
Will the ACDELCO 19129762 Fittings fit or are they just for the automatic Tranny Cooler? I cant find any other ones.

Which coolers are OK to buy?

I am tending to go stock ACDELCO 21736 /GM25887194 because they go for 450USD and i dont have any cooing issues.

I read many good things about weaponX but I think they are a little bit thicker than stock and the stock one was already making trouble getting it out. And it sells for 799USD.

I found DENSO and Spectra Radiators on ebay. Dont know anything about them besides that they are cheap. I dont want to Risk anything beause of buying a budget Radiator but correct me if Im wrong about the brands.

Thanks in advance and best regards from Germany!
