No cooler in a Truck Pan.
Or maybe you aren't interested in the value of that?
Beside's there's No clearence issues, and it doesn't hang down.
Good Luck

Those are the numbers from a local AC Delco distibuter. They send parts to the dealers. They are GM parts. Those are the numbers off the invoice, I'm asuming they are the same numbers the dealer uses.

I'm using a truck pan, got it for free. It doesn't do anything as far as cooling. It might take a few minutes more to get up to temp because it's heating 1 to 1.5 quarts more fluid.

Also when it gets hot it takes longer to cool that extra fluid off.
