Any idea when your Tranny Coolers will be available? I've left numerous messages at your shop...No response.... Left a couple of PM's no response. Last update they were being shipped out, but that was close to 2 weeks ago. Any updates????

They will start trickling in friday. I haven't seen any in about three months. My problem is I have to share these coolers with Nascar as they use the cooler for their engines. Won't be much longer.

I work relatively close to his shop....If I get confirmation that they're in today, I will have one installed this weekend.....Mike must be really busy, since he hasn't answered the phone at his shop in days....:confused:

Mike: Sorry for all the calls, I didn't realize my number was being blocked. I don't answer blocked numbers either, Mike L installed the tranny cooler today. Works great, tranny temps down, and it looks great. Accept no substitutes....This is a high quality cooler.....Again Mike, thanks for the install and conversation....Joseph...:thumb:

Just a quick note regarding Mike L's tranny cooler. Got back this week from Havasu/Parker AZ (Extended July 4th celebration) Towing in 110 + temps, tranny temps stayed between 175 and 180. That was towing my boat and truck loaded. Even climbing up Chiriaco pass temps stayed constant. Before the upgrade my tranny temps would be around 200/205....Mike's cooler worked better than expected. Highly recommended upgrade:thumb:

Just chatted with Mike this afternoon and all I can say is not only does this guy provide excellent advice on just about any transmission related and his parts are top notch, but also he's a hell of a stand up guy. If any of you are on the fence about doing something for your Allison, I highly suggest to give him a call.

Can't wait to get my cooler and watch my temps drop!

Mike, do you have the dimensions for your cooler? It is probably either too tall or too wide to fit in my core support, but I figured I would check to make sure...

I doubt they will fit in early models.

'01/'05.......7.5" X 14" X 2"
'06/'10.......24" X 6" X 2"

The 01-05 would definitely fit. The later model one is quite wide.. but I would rather have it due to its larger area. Time to start measuring...

The 6 speed cooler down right kicks ass. Maybe the finest cooler made. The new '11 cooler will be the ultimate. It will be 7" tall.
