Trans Cooler

[bavtech]

I have a 700r4 in my 1972 Camaro.

I was wondering what people are using for the Transmission Cooler. I am trying to not use the one that is built in the radiator. I am trying to make the engine as clean as possible, without the hardlines running to the radiator.

thanks for the help.

My engine isn't in the car yet, but I went with Earl's transmission and oil coolers. Just call them up and tell them about your application, they will suggest a size that fits your application.

Where do you plan on mounting it???

I did have one on my last 1970 Camaro that I mounted in front of the rad that was made by Earl's. Just seeing if anyone had any cooler idea's on styles or mounting locations.

They make heat sink trans coolers that you can mount anywhere, like on a frame rail or floor pan.

They are just a tube with cooling fins to be aircooled.

They also have radiator style ones with their own mini electric fans that could potentially be mounted in the rear of the car.

B&M plate style are the only way to go. Don't trust a mount it anywhere tube with some fins to cool a trans, especially since most people end up mounting it where there is less airflow than in front of the rad.

BTW, IMO hardlines are a LOT better looking than tacky flexlines clamped to various places.

i have the ford one from summit. IIRC it's the same design as the B&M plate coolers but it was alot cheaper and came with hose and mounting hardware. so far it's worked great.
