trans cooler mounting

[coughy]

ok triton gurus
im doing a little something on the chally and i wont to know which way is better for heat disapation/cooling
in these pickys
1 have the in and out lets of the cooler at the top ???
as heat rises i think not??



or 2
in and outlets at bottom so it has more of a chance for the fan to cool it??? as the heat rises



what does the gurus say???

[NowForThe5th]

Do the cooling tubes run horizontal or vertical?

Probably doesn't matter too much but I'd have the inlet on the bottom and the outlet at the top. That way the oil should be pushing through ALL of the cooler.

If both at top or bottom you're more likely to have dead spots in the cooler where there is no flow and this would reduce its effectiveness.

[coughy]

yer chris the bar run horizontal so left to right or if your a right to left kinda guy lol
as you can see there is a fitting on 1 side and 2 on the other so maybe i use the uper on the right and the lower on the other side so it has to go threw and down or up to get past
see bottom pic move right side inlet or outlet to the top???

[coughy]

like this chris



this is how thick this big mongrell is


so if you know fitting sizes that port on the side is 3/4 bspp
so friging huge for my needs

im working on the more oil the trany has the better the cooling it will be so im guessing this will hold a nother 2 or so liters (havent checked yet but will)
and a big arse thermo fan to cool it as i have a 7" thermo on the current setup but still not good enough so upgrading we will go

I'd go with lower to higher too for the same reason as NowForThe5th.

I take it that treatment didn't do much?

[coughy]

yer it did help a little but not the wow it is so much better now effect

but i just seen on the paj forums that my software for the tranny is way out of date
this is mine



and this is what there up to

1. Change of ATF-temperature-control-pattern. New S/W part number 8631 B047 70B.

2. Change the pre-injection amount for torque sudden change improvement to prevent cruise control hunting. New S/W part number 1860B 5555 06.

so i need to see a stealer to update this auto update was from around october last year

[red dragin]

Improvement is something, indicates the problem might be a cooked converter? You didn't have yours from new am I right?

[coughy]

correct 2nd hand at 38000
so yer it might be but i checked all pressures and all very good just above what it should be so mmm
but what if it is the converter $ to r/r and then see if it done anything
you know what i mean

[red dragin]

Of course, that's the challenge with the black magic device (auto transmissions). Only wizards truly understand them, and charge accordingly

Rip it out and chuck a Lenco behind it
