Radiator Question! Koyo for a manual transmission

Just a quick question to the folks our there who purchased the Koyo radiators for their manual transmission cars... As far as I know Koyo does not make a radiator for the manual, just the automatics... I know that there is no dramatic difference between the two but just wanted to what your feedback is as far as the mounting of the fans? Any clearance issues? I am pretty sure those are the same as the auto but just wanted to check...
I have installed an auto radiator in my Corolla that is a manual and it been just fine for the last 6 years...

I'm not sure on the Koyo's but I just replaced mine with an Autozone special. From what their person said companies don't make two different ones anymore. They just make one for the Auto and if it's a manual you just don't hook up the tranny cooler lines. Not sure if that helps, but I tried!
