Did that one require modifying your hood latch bracket?

I'm using a 3800 police oil cooler from the junkyard in standalone config. Ive had it that for a year and change now. I don't usually see temps above 156-167 range and that's when ambient temps are in the 90's.

I always preach standalone. Its simpler, it cuts out the risk of your radiator leaking coolant into the trans fluid.and the people talking about needing to heat fluid , well its a synthetic trans fluid(dex6). The viscosity will always be very consistent no matter the temp.

Regardless you can find bar plate style trans coolers all over amazon for 50+bucks. Nothing super hard about it. And if your worried about fittings you can use AN style fittings and hoses from the trans case to the cooler.
