Trans cooler + lower thermostat? I'm swapping my M6 to a 4L80e. Ordered a Yank converter, so I will get the free 30k trans cooler with it. With it going in front of the radiator and condenser, should I get a lower temp thermostat?

If you plan on doing more than just the converter then yes, get the lower t-stat. Personal suggestion: get it whan you need it. If you don't need it yet, don't get it. Save your money for things that make power. Exhaust, induction, h/c, FI, etc...JMHO

Mine is a h/c/n20 car with about 8.7:1 DCR. LS6 intake. M6, swapping to 4L80e. So I just don't know if I should do the thermostat while I'm at it. It seems like the additional cooler would reduce radiator airflow. But I have no overheating problems now.
