Will anything happen if i remove the air

Im going to put a transmission cooler on my car but i saw that the airconditioner radiator(cant spell) is in front of the radiator so i thought why not just remove it i dont use my air any ways so i was wondering if i could remover my airconditioner radiator and just leave the pump and all the other airconditioner stuff on because i dont want to have a radiator with 2 other things in front of it.




THANKS

TB,

As long as the condenser coil is clean (no debris sticking all over it) there should be no air flow restriction, and therefore little benefit from removing it.

If you don't already have the transmission cooler, you could try using the condenser as an oil cooler. It will tolerate the pressure, and should flow adequately.
