RE: Temp Problems Gone



I have a pretty big B&M trans cooler. I think it's the largest middle 
size one. It's mounted on the drivers side ahead of the radiator near 
the back of the front grill at a slight angle with the top all the way 
forward and the bottom halfway back. I have the flow to it before the 
radiator. I could even put a fan on it if I wanted. I have the relay and 
circuitry available. I have a fan too but I think it's too big. I am 
really concerned about operating temperature so I want to be sure I do a 
thorough job on the cooling system. I don't want it running cold but I 
don't think that's even possible at this point.
