Q:
how many degrees will this drop the transmission fluid temp....not a hot rod tho
Answers (1)
Know the answer?
Answer this question
A:
Your question cannot be answered directly due to other variables that have not been mentioned. Example: larger sized coolers will provide greater surface area for greater heat dissipation. This style of cooler is very prevalent in the performance aftermarket and does a very, very effective job in reducing transmission temperatures. It is not uncommon for these to reduce temperatures as much as 50 degrees, but again, depending upon your application, outside ambient temperatures, and the application in which you use your vehicle will have an affect on the overall temperature of the fluid. A good temperature range for your transmission fluid is 175-200 degrees. Some customers use these in conjunction with an internal radiator transmission cooler, but others have had great success using them in a stand alone situation.
Q:
What would cool my transmission better. One of these coolers or a trans cooler that is buit into the bottom of a radiator?

Answer this question
A:
Part number 91023112
The aluminum heatsink trans cooler is an option used daily for rods that do not have a radiator with the trans cooler or a radiator that could not accept the cooler. Normally they handle the cooling needs sufficiently as long as sized for the intended application and have sufficient air flow to dissipate the heat. The cooler in the radiator in some cases is not adequate for sufficient cooling and in those cases a supplementary cooler is needed. The internal cooler in the radiator also serves need in warming up the fluid to operating temperature in different climates. The transmission fluid is designed to work in certain temperature ranges and if the fluid is too cold it can have adverse effects as well. As a fail safe solution a temp gauge can be installed in the line to keep the driver informed of the fluid temperature.
