Re: [AMC-list] Was: Anyone have ...now M-3x tranny cooling

It does not have the hole for the air inlet and the T/C didn't have 
anything on it that looked like a fan. Smooth is probably a good 
description of it. A quick look in the parts book says that it should be 
an M-37. 199 cars (which is what is in the car) got M-36's.
