Transmission Cooler Mounting Tech: You’d Be Shocked The place You Can Put It.
I do know I’m not alone in having owned automobiles and vans which have a radiator, AC condenser, transmission cooler, oil cooler, and energy steering cooler all stacked up entrance behind the grill. I imply that’s how the manufacturing facility does them, and it simply is sensible proper? Properly, sorta . Sure, good airflow via the grill makes it appear to be the proper place to place stuff that wants good airflow. And if in case you have a inventory bodied automobile with the unique core help, no chilly air, turbo, or supercharger inlets coming via it, or an intercooler attempting to occupy that area in entrance of the radiator, then it completely is sensible. However I’ve had inventory bodied automobiles, with unique core helps, which have a tough time becoming a condenser and coolers between it and the grill or helps. So what do you do should you A. don’t have room to suit a cooler cleanly, and/or B. don’t wish to run traces and all the things all around the automobile to get there?
Properly, it seems {that a} good plate model cooler and small electrical fan will cool a transmission like none different, and could be mounted beneath the automobile. Yep, and it loves it. Earlier than you begin asking why the OE wouldn’t be doing this, the reply is easy. Cash. Doing this in your common priced automobile would imply the producer must add an electrical fan to the automobile and that prices greater than the 6-10 toes of transmission cooler traces. It’s all about cash.
I’ll inform you that I’ve a pair tasks ready for his or her new residence within the store and all of them can be getting a distant mounted trans cooler with an electrical fan. It simply is sensible. Watch and be taught the hows and whys from Doug at Movement Raceworks.
