Aftermarket tranny cooler
Can I install a B&M tranny cooler without having it run through the radiator tank? Or does the tranny need some heat?

Re: Aftermarket tranny cooler
Its best to run it through the radiator as well. I believe i had mine hooked up so that it ran through the aftermarket cooler first, then into the radiator to get a bit of heat back and then back into the trans. My trans never saw above 195* after the cooler. Do a quick search on here though and double check that my memory is correct. Its been a few years since my car was auto.
