What tranny cooler for YankSS4000?
So I just ordered my Yank ss4000 and am in need of a new tranny cooler. Its going in my 02 ss. What brand/size(dimensions) of transmission cooler works best with this setup? Any advice is appreciated. Can't wait to get this baby installed...

I was told even with a fan the tube and fin style coolers suck......I have the stacked plate style...mine is made by Long...B&M is the same thing.
FWIW i have a vig3600 and my trans doesn't get over 180 in 90 degree weather with the A/C on...

I run the B&M 70266, stays cool all the time. The ones with the fan are supposed to be better, but also cost 4-5 times as much. Plus, not being a passive part, they can fail (the fan).
And bypass the funky radiator-based cooler, it is superfluous and could actually add heat versus the external cooler alone.

I'm gonna buy a tranny cooler some time this spring. I have a stock transmission and a stock converter, but I figure it can't hurt. I plan on buying this one from Thunder Racing:

They sell a B&M 28000 GVW cooler for $69.99. Bigger than the 24k, so it can only be better.
