For what it is worth, I have already added a deeper aluminum pan and a Autometer trans temp gauge sender into the pan. So I will know if there is a heat problem, but i would rather head it off, than fix it later.




I've always been a little leary of bypassing a radiator cooler (which works by conduction) to use only a liquid-to-air cooler (works by less-effective convection). And keep in mind that the hottest oil temps will be coming out of the converter, so putting a temp sender at the end of the line, into a deeper pan with more fluid capacity, might end up as a buffer that could reduce your warning time for any temperature problems.

OTH, if you are running a low-stall converter maybe there's nothing to worry about.


Parts I seek: driver doorpanel, 65 Sport Fury, prefer black, needs to be 7-8 on 10 scale, might buy set 16" x 6" Dodge truck wheel(s), from early 70s?, takes 9" dogdish - need for a research job so cheaper is better. 69-73 C-body caliper brackets and/or splashields Send a PM.
