Going to larger lines does add flow. All the internal geartrain lube passages are the same size between the 42/44/46/47/48 RE-RH.

All the three speeds are 1 to 1 running down the road. The over drives have planetary action in the OD unit in 4th gear. That's why they need larger lines than the 3 speeds.

people have said that the "stacked plate" types transfer more heat

I have a stacked plate cooler. Does it matter which position the cooler lines are mounted ?


it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

No, just mount it in the most convenient appropriate position for the easiest/shortest hose routing.

I run a B&M stacked plate cooler, 8" 4500 converter, no fan, and nothing through the radiator. I have done 5 drag weeks with my road weight at about 4200lbs with passenger and gear. Now I do not have a temp gauge but I have run the same fluid for at least 8 years and it still looks good. The few times I have hit the trans cooler with a temp gun it has been 150-180* not that its much of an indication of fluid temp but I didn't think that was bad.

I use a trans cooler I bought from Advance Auto Parts about 20 years ago. Mounted in front the radiator. Works great, lol.

That’s what I have but I want it plumbed with AN and braided line so I can save my stock lines for a later project.

Jbody, is the transmission side or hose side a 45 degree fitting? I can’t find a 45 degree -6AN to 1/8” NPT fitting anywhere

Fragola has the -6AN to 1/8" NPT fittings with 45 degree angle
https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fra-482362-bl/overview/

I used the straight adapter fittings and the angled hose ends instead of angled fittings,

^ fitting right out of the trans. Local welding shop has Redhorse stuff in stock. Bought one there.

C&R out of Aussi makes a nice 10x11 plate type cooler with -6 fittings welded on to it. I was having issues with the trans temp staying too high, especially if running two classes. I had one of those "log" type heat exchangers under the front bumper on my car. I retained that, but also went with a new crossflow rad that had the trans cooler mounted in the tank. That took care of my prob. I have the C&R cooler, but so far it's just wall art.
