From what I understand, there's only two sizes. The 19,000 GVW and the 24,000 GVW. Ideally, the 24K GVW is what you'll want. The 19K GVW should work though, I'd imagine.

There's also one that's higher than the 24,000 but I think it's like race only or something.

19000 GVW is already more than enough. A 19,000 Gross Vehicle Weight trans cooler is more than enough to cool a 3600 Gross Vehicle Weight 00 T/A, race car or street car.

Good to know. I never knew what the GVW meant. Personally, I've got a 24K GVW in mine. Overkill I suppose.
