If you don't have a deep tranny pan already get one and a trans temp gauge before spending any money on a additional tranny cooler. You may find out you don't need another tranny cooler Trans fluid nneds to be run at or above 160F for the additives in iti to work, it doesn't start breaking chemically until it gets close to 300F My message is if your tranny fluid runs below 250F all the time, don't worry about it

Type-F don't have no additives.

I like to run the one through the radiator if it has a radiator cooler then when it comes out run it into at least a small radiator type cooler and back to the trans. A high stall converter and big TQ engine and low gears is gonna generate a lot of heat, got to get rid of it some how.
