Nice job Lawrence! You should add in that the hose is -8 Aeroquip Socketless hose that requires no clamps when used with the correct barbed fittings. -8 is 1/2" so we don't restrict the flow through the 3/8" transmission cooler lines because we added more line length.

Keeping the flow level high enough is paramount to not starving the transmission and damaging it.

Also, with the high efficiency and much higher flow rate of the Setrab engine oil cooler we've put in there for a transmission cooler, it's important to not have the fan come on before 175?F.

Joe at Westminster tells me that as long as we don't exceed 250, we're golden. I don't suspect that will be an issue.

It is nice to get some use out of that Setrab stuff I've had in the garage for a few years though. Glad we found a good home for it.
