I have a question about a Trans cooler install. Does it make a difference if I install it before or after the heat exchanger in the radiator. Is there any advantage of doing it one way or the other? Or bypass the radiator all together?

The C4 trans has a deep aluminum pan with upgraded internals (see sig) and I'm using B&M Trick Shift fluid. I will be installing a 2800 Stall converter along with a FordStrokers.com 347 engine in about 2 months and want to set the system up to its best advantage for this.

Thanks for the input...

 

I remember reading hearing that through the radiator first and then the separate cooler. That makes sense to me because the new cooler will cool the fluid a bit more after flowing through the hot radiator. If you do it the other way then I think the radiator will rewarm the fluid on it's way back to the tranny.
