Default Hayden tranny coolers?

How are Hayden coolers compared to B&M or TCI's? What size will I need if I want to bypass the stock cooler? Also how are you guys running your Tranny temp gauges?

Haydens are great. The ones that look like little radiators are the best tranny coolers. Thats what type the Haydens are. Frank at Performabuilt told me to just run the temp sender in the pan. Thats how its run.

Get the biggest one you can fit on the car. I always got mine at Auto Zone. They usually have the fin type and the radiator type. I beleive the one I always get is like 12' wide and I think 3/4' thick. Its something like that. Its a big one.

Default If push comes to shove.

Obtain an old a/c condensor, flush it out and bolt it in.
