Tranny oil thermostat

I was reading on this site a couple of years ago abt a bypass valve that you install on the tranny oil lines. It's supposed to allow 10% of the oil to pass thru the cooler until it's preset temp is reached, then it allows 100% of the tranny fluid thru the cooler.

Didn't have any luck with the search.

I recently installed a rad with no tranny cooler and need something to keep the tranny oil from staying too cold during the cooler months.



Thx!!

The B&M transmission coolers supposedly have that feature built in. Check out their website and see the description.
