so my built trans is runnin in the 220-230 range and i have a b&m super cooler now but the Yank 2600 stall converter is just making to much heat and i cant keep her cool. I have a deeper pan +2qts i need to install and when i drop the pan i would like to pull my cooler and replace it with a BIG one. Please let me know what you have how much and pics would be great. tholtz10@aol.com thanks

 

How about just daisy chaining another "small" cooler, to fit into a good airstream source?

 

Negative on the hooking up another small cooler, too much of a pressure drop.

I have a brand new trans cooler that's for a F350 Super Duty pick-up. The dimensions are 23X14 inch.

PM if interested.

 

Not trying to steal anybodies sale or send it elsewhere, but I've had a great experience with a Fluidyne unit I picked up on eBay with my Colorado- comparable to the B&M/Long Tru Cool units, and much less money for a LOT more size and cooling ability.

 

any pics of the ford unit? i wonder if they would work the same as anyother unit or if its only for a ford truck.


Any link for the ebay unit?

 

I've gotta ask....How would a 2nd cooler reduce line pressure? How is 2 small coolers any different than 1 large cooler?

 

Here's a link to the install I did on Cfans. Just go to ebay and search "Fluidyne Cooler"- it will bring up several....

Do you have it looped through he stock cooler in the radiator tank? You'll never get good cooling without it (fluid transfers more heat than air...). As far as pressure drop, it should be insignificant, and even if it is it doesn't matter, the fluid goes through the pump before it gets used in the trans (you'd blow up a cooler if you ran it on the pressure side)

 

Im running both the stock cooler and b&m cooler. it goes through the stock cooler first then the other cooler then back to the trans

 

i have been told to use a AC condensor what do you guys think about that?

 

I've got a monster trans cooler, about 10" tall and over a foot wide. $35 takes it

 

I would be very careful about using the A/C condensor. The A/C compressor can create small metal shavings that if introduced to your transmission will stick the valves in your valve body causing internal damage. Just my 2 cents, but I would use the cooler for the super duty Ford. I modified a cooler from a Taurus SHO to fit my 92 and it works great with a PI 2800 stall converter.

 

what if i was to put a 7" electric fan on the cooler im runnign now would that help much?

 

That would only help at low speeds. You'd be better off with either a Black Magic 180 or a LS1 dual fan setup.

 

Im runnin a LS1 dual fan setup now in my truck. fans came from a 2002 ss camaro
