[Chaddy]

I want to run the pump through a cooler and need to no what some of you are running and how you are running it. Pic's would be nice. Thanx in advance.

Lots of big Fords ran them back in the 70s. The cooler mounted to the pump inself.

I made a little bracket that I welded off the bottom of the core support, and bent it 45 degrees to the back as to get it out of the way. I dont have pics, but its the lowest spot in the system as to get all the air out.

Mine is the one on the left. It is a factory tranny cooler. The big one is my new Tranny cooler .

I have replummed it with steel lines it is plumbed after the HB and steering box.

I got mine off a caddy. I've also seen some factory coolers on some new body style Chevy trucks in the junkyard, too.

I have hydroboost and I just plumbed it in the return line from the steering gear box. It goes from the gear box through the cooler and back to the reservoir.

I don't know if I was worried about nothing, but I made sure the cooler was lower than the reservoir. I was worried about air getting trapped in the lines.

I used a tranny cooler my friend didnt need after his manual swap. Plumbed it on the low pressure side and mounted it infront of the radiator behind my grill.

Thanx Guys I have a tranny cooler Just sitting around that would be perfect. Also, when you extend the reservoir, How full can you keep it without spilling over?
