i need a good trans cooler help me
i need a good trans cooler help me i need a good trans cooler , overkill is fine with me as long as its not too expensive , im running a 4l65e i run my camaro hard and i have had trans problems numerious times and after the third trans i just want to cover all my bases looking to spend $200 bucks give or take ive seen two styles the long style and the flat radiator style opinions and advice on which is better and am i going to have to do allot of work to install this thing? , thanks for your time and help
There are several good brands out there, Hayden and B&M being two of them. The plate types are supposed to be more efficient than the tube types. With your demands, you may want one with a built-in fan. You may also want a thermostat. An example is the B&M 70298, which has both, but needs an installation kit.
The install is not difficult at all, and it is generally recommended that you take the factory radiator out of the loop.
I use the 70264, and my temps are always below 200, even when I run it hard.

i run a B&M one, with the 1/2" pipe threads in/out-i think its like 11" X 12"
i have it mounted under the car at a slight angle to catch air, running a 4l80e and 10" converter, doesnt see much more than 160-170 degs

B&m The BEST you can get is the B&M coolers from Summit (IMO) and if running Dope style the B&M Part # BMM-70264 (11"BY 6") ARE THE BIGGEST YOU CAN FIT UP IN THE FRONT CORNERS

Derale deep cooling tube pan
LOL @ B&M being the best possible. It would be fine with your 2,800. But if OP ever steps up to a 4,000+ click the above links and call it a day.

i've got a B&M supercooler attatched in front of my radiator. it's all connected together. works great for me, i've got a Vig3600 and it's been in for over 6 years now. haven't raced since '04 so i only daily drive but it had its fair share of hot lapping back before.
