installing tranny cooler

[dan2288]

I think I should get a bigger tranny cooler soon because im making some good power. How do you install one? Can I just remove the lines from the old cooler and put them on the new cooler? Is it that easy?

Its pretty simple to do. most likely ## going to have to cut ## existing transmission line cus it might not connect to the aftermarket one, its just a matter of cutting a line and hooking up a rubber one to the new transmission cooler and attach the other end to the existing lines. and hopefully ## aftermarket cooler has multiple holes at the bottom that way you can install it in the stock location without any need to drill new ones. PM if u have any more questions

do you recommend the 11x11x3/4 IPT cooler or the 11x8x 1.5 B&M cooler?

Your better off with the B&M cooler cus the IPT might just be a lil bit too big. if its too big it might cool your fluid too much; which is almost as bad as having it too hot

IPT sells the Tru-Cool Tranny coolers which are supposed to be pretty good and efficient. I've used a large B&M on a TH-350 years back with good success!
It's as simple as moving your old lines to your new cooler if they are long enough. If not just buy new hose that is long enough. I've seen some people choose to run the new cooler parallel with the old one as well, not sure if its any better though. I would recommend moving the tranny cooler from where it sits stock if you are using a nice size FMIC
