4l60e tranny cooler
I am trying to fix my a4 for the last time. I swear if it goes out again T-56 here I come.
When mounting the cooler, I am going to bypass the Radiator cooler and hook it up directly to the B&M.
Should I mont it hrizontal or vertical. I see many people putting it horizontal across the opening where air flows to the condenser. Correct me if I am wrong but that is "dope Style" correct?? The only problem I see with that is that it seems as if the air would be hitting the top of the cooler and going around it, but not through it. I was thinking about mounting it vertically instead.
Does anyone know which way will cool better based on actual trans temps?
Also on a side note. If I got a Transgo shift kit, billet servo, B&M 24k cooler and Raybestos Z-pack 3-4 clutches, is there anything else I can do to make SURE my 4l60e will last more than 1k MILES? I am getting sick and tired of fooling with it. ANY..I repeat A N Y suggestions of how to build this stronger to keep my 3-4 from going out PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know. Obviously the words of a desperate man.
Thank you for any and all of your help.

the cooler is a great idea, its not exactly going to do the job of the hardware in the tranny itself but it will help out alot..... https://ls1tech.com/forums/automatic-transmission/584808-corvette-servo-s.html
