Quote: OH BOY.. If you take an infrared temp gun and point it at the top of the cooler ,, it will be HOTTER than the bottom of the cooler regardless of WHERE the cooler lines are connected....
Now that is hilarious right there... so you're saying that the hot trans fluid coming into the cooler will actually get hotter before it exits if you plumb it upside down?!
In your "theory" that is the only way for the top (outlet) of the trans cooler to be hotter then the bottom (inlet)
That is one of the best ones I've heard in a while...
Maybe I had to re read that one.. If you take the inlet temp and the outlet temp,, naturally the fluid will be cooler from the outlet.. That's the whole idea of a cooler.... If you put the heated oil in the top and remove it from the bottom,, the overall temperature difference will be GREATER than if you inlet the bottom and outlet the top.. Some of the heat will be absorbed back into the top of the cooler because of the theory of HEAT RISES.....THUS limiting or stifling the function of the cooler...
