    recommended trans cooler?

    Was browsing and noticed that most seem to go after B&M coolers. Anyone recommend anything specific? Anyone have a part number? Looking to add one in the near future.

    I am running a hayden from advance. As long as it's a big stacked plate, you are good.

      Stack plates are more efficient than whatever the other type are called size for size. The other type are usually a bit cheaper though. If you're going to install one, might as well get a quality unit and be done with it.

            #2, #3 maybe thicker but it does not have as much area as two, the thickness really does not help since that extra 1/2" is being cooled by the air thats already been heated up by the front .75"
            Better yet, buy two of #2 and run them both



            as long as i dont hold it against the converter for extended periods of time, my tranny almost never sees 200degrees anymore.

                I am running B&M's 70264 model cooler

                It is a good piece, and a nice size both from a cooling stand point, and installation.

                I would not advise running multiple coolers in series, this will reduce ATF flow rate which is also bad for your tranny. Running a cooler inline with a factory in-radiator ATF heat echanger is fine, though.
