out of curiosity, is this something that goes inside the trans? excuse my ignorance...don't know anything about this product and interested.

no the valve body does not have to come out , or even drop the pan .
it has 2 lines that hook up to the pressure test port ( right by the spin on ) and then the lines route on the outside of the tranny 1 to each side, and hook into hollow bango bolts that replace 2 of the exsisting PTO cover bolts . Mikes instructions are vey good .
no you do not have to remove your valve body. The install would be really easy if you had a lift. Give Mike L a call... you will be glad you did.
mike does it take away lube/pressure from the other clutches or passages due to the extra flow to the c-3?
Not to answer for Mike because he is the one who designed it , but i asked him this very question , and he told me that the pump has enough capacity to keep up and doesnt miss it . I am shure he can chime in with a more detailed run down .
The snake oil doesn't take enough pressure away from the Alli to make a difference.
What I like about it is whenever the engine is running, C3 is being cooled with spray. Works great for guys that like to hot lap.
Mike Ill be getting with you in the next week or two to have you put in the C3 Oiler as well as an input shaft. Ill give you a call soon.
The snake oil and Mike's cooler is next on my drivetrain upgrade list. Need to save a few more pennies.
Sounds almost too simple. I have to start thinking of upgrade trans very soon.
My trans is not liking me right now. Limped for the first time today on a interstate entrance ramp rolling into the throttle in 4th on lockup. Classic scenario I hear, but it freaked me out.
I have never limped mine in any other gear except 5th. It doesn't like me when I roll into it hard going down the highway.
Mine has worked flawless for over a year now. I like to hotlap also. Goodbit of towing and not a problem. I couldn't see a drop in temps that I could tell anyway. You won't regret it

The C3 Oiler wasn't designed to really decrease transmission temperature's... but to actually allow fluid to soak down the C3 clutches. Mike is a smart ole fart
Ok, next question. Could this prolong a C3 clutch in a transmission that has limped once?
(Ask me why I am asking!) I don't have any idea with the clutch looks like right now, but I just limped on the 4-5 shift on a throttle roll entering the interstate today.

No once a stock clutch has slipped it will never bite properly again . evertime it limps it slowly gets weaker on its holding power .
