Transmission Cooler Question

Another important thing is to thoroughly flush both your transmission lines and radiator cooler. You can even plumb an in-line filter to catch any circulating contaminants for the first few hundred miles.

On my '68, I ended up running a pair of stacked plate coolers in series, because of the limited amount of room behind the grill. Make sure you use double clamps on all the rubber lines and dedicated transmission fluid hose. I like the fuel injection clamps better than the traditional hygear style clamps. They don't cut into the rubber line as bad.

I also added a pair of ball valves to the lines feeding the radiator and plate coolers(to warm up the fluid for daily driving) and the plate coolers( to allow me to switch fluid flow to bypass the radiator cooler and to only flow to the plate coolers when racing).
