What trans cooler to get?

[white99ta]

I was wondering if anyone could tell me what trans cooler I should get. My ta is a dd with a cam, ssf 3600 and 373s. Anyone have one or know which one Is good and cheap? I also need a trans temp sensor and gauge for my b&m deep trans pan. Thanks

I went with this one and mounted it on the front end with Mustang...I mean Corvette Scotty back in the day. :cheers

The biggest one you can fit in a location that you choose.

[Bradleyrj]

Agree w/ LXtasy. Go.to the store and get the biggest one they have. That's the one you want.

Thanks for the help. I went to autozone the other day and the biggest one they had was a torqflo supercooler and it was for class a motor homes. will that be enough or go bigger? It was torqflo supercool 611679

I prefer the Hayden coolers myself. I also run an RV cooler on my Mustang.

I'm running the largest Hayden oreillys had in stock. You are kind of limited in the mounting area so go measure and get the biggest that fits. I think mine is 11"x7" or so, its been OK with my 3200 stall with AC rolling in stop and go traffic everyday.

if you have an issue with airflow you could always mount a fan on a thermo switch,

I am about to convert a 04 cobra HE into a transcooler

[white99ta]

What GVW rating are you guys running?

[schardbody]

hayden 403 is what i run, its medium duty, 12"x7"x3/4" and rated at 18k gvw towing 3500lbs or something like that.

I got a nice cooler from summit. Its 12x12. Ill post a link later if your interested. It was like 90$.

[BAD BOB]

i think the tube and plate style is the best!

[oldskoolstang]

Factory ones from F250's and larger vehicles work good, that's what I ran for years.... and they are 5-10 bucks from you-pull-it yards....

If money is no issue get the biggest tube and plate style aftermarket one that will fit.

I have a f250 cooler to install.

The stacked plate coolers are more efficient than the older style tube and fin coolers. If space is a concern, definitely go for a stacked plate design.

I did a study a while back on the two different style coolers on a Silverado 4L60E I had just gone through. The radiator cooler had to be bypassed due to a converter failure, so the aftermarket tube and fin auxiliary cooler that was already on it got put to the test as a stand alone. I was seeing 190 degrees in stop and go around town in 75 degree air with it. I knew that wouldn't cut it for 20 more degrees of summertime temps, so I replaced it with a like sized stacked plate cooler. Ran the same test drive route again in the same air temperature as before and noted a 25 degree drop from the old cooler. Nuff said.

with the AC condenser still there?

my 3/4" thick cooler barely fits between the condenser and the hood latch beam. it could be mounted in front of the hood latch i suppose...

Thanks. Any particular one to look for or just the best I can find?

I just had the trans in my powerstroke done by rob. He put the cooler on it and then i added the temp gauge in the cooler return line back to the trans cruising down the road it reads 110 or so. When you pull off from a red light while the converter is unlcocked it has got about 150. I havent towed with it yet but im very happy so far.
