Trans cooler attatched to back of Radiator???? *** opinions***
I am debating on using the trans cooler (derale w/ Fan) on the back of the radiator using those straps that go through the fins. along with the procharger shroud and 1 16" procharger fan.
Kinda like how everyone uses the 9" fan along with the 16". But this one will be pushing through the trans cooler then radiator .
My questions?
1. If the shroud is off the radiator about an inch. Would this work without cutting smalls holes in the shroud?
2. Would it cause the tranny fluid to heat up more being attached to the radiator?
3. Would this help with the cooling of the engine as well as the trans?

So, you want to mount this behind the radiator and it's going to be pushing air forward?
You don't see a problem with that?

Moving air is not crucial on a cooler that has its own fan. I would not put it in the direct path of the radiator bc it simply doesn't need to be. Find an alternate/unused location for it.

well the main reason for debating on using this location is so i can utilize the air movement through the cooler and the radiator to help cool the engine..
I do not have the a/c condensor in front of the radiator
