Looks good. I have thought about doing the same thing. I need to find me a much larger cooler, mine is about the same size your running, B&M Super Cooler or Hi Tech Cooler, but with the TH350 and 4k stall I believe a larger cooler will be more efficient, or run them together.

Are you still running an internal filter as well? By the way that looks like sweet setup.

My B & M cooler is one smaller than the super cooler. The super cooler is for motor homes and such. This cooler just made it in there.

Yes I still have an internal cooler.

I meant cooler. I installed a tranny cooler (not a super cooler).

I also installed an in line tranny filter which is the posts subject. It's actually an in line oil filter being used as an in line tranny fluid filter.

The question is are you still using a filter inside the pan or did you modify something to work without having the filter there

No, I did not modify the transmission filter inside the transmission. This new in line filter is an addition to the filter inside the transmission.

If my converter blows up this new in line filter protects the cooler and tranny from further damage from debris. Thats all. It also cleans better than the filter in the tranny.

It's a drag racing thing. I see them at the track all the time. My tranny builder recommends it for added protection so I did it.

Not for the daily driver.
