C6 Trans cooler

Has anyone installed one on a C6? What is everyone using? I know there are plenty of options for the 4th gen but I am unsure what will fit and provide the most cooling for the C6.

Thanks!

I recently done a Derale #51006 on a C6, it is very easy to fit on the car and comes with ORing fittings. Very nice cooler at a good price.

Sweet!

Do you have pics of the install?

I just moved up to a B&M 70274 super cooler. It's 11x11x1.5. It's huge. I think it's the biggest BM offers. If that doesn't keep your trans cool then there's other issues.

That is pretty beefy. Is it just run inline with the stocker?

I run a B&M Hitek with a fan in front of the passenger wheel and bypass the rad completely. Keeps things nice and cool but if you drive the car in cold weather, running through the rad will help you get to a good operating temperature faster.
