I am trying to answer questions about cooling and not talk about my coolers. There are other ways to increase cooling but they will be complicated. I am against cutting lines and hate hoses because they become a potential problem with heat and rub through.
If you are a good fabricator you can build something neat. Most people are not and wind up butchering their lines. I strive for max cooling for the trans without compromising cooling to the engine. If you put too big of a cooler in front of the stack, you help the trans and heat the engine which in turn will throw heat back into the trans. Pissing in the wind. Choose your trans cooling system wisely.

I will have lines made to fit with the right fittings, not half ass strung together. This is just something i'm looking into now and not having any issues with at the current time.

Thx Mike L for the good info.
