- Keeping your transmission cool is extremely important and if not taken care of it can harm the life of the transmission. Doing any heavy towing or installing a higher stall torque converter will increase the temperature of the transmission and can shorten its life.
The transmission cooler I used is the B&M super cooler, Part# 70264 or amzn.to/2GKRCO7 - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Nice video. Going over not only how the cooler is mounted to the condenser, but the stuff with the wires to help the hoses hold their shape was great. Also great engineering with the rub points.
Thanks for the video!
When I was towing with the 3.08 gears and a 5.3 in Colorado my trans hit 248!!! Crazy!
This video helped, thanks
Wow thanks
Before and after 0-60 when you install the torque converter 🙏🏾
Most definitely!
How much lower did this cooler make the trans run?
in the winter time the temp is around 140, and in the summer it’s about 180-190 depending on traffic. And that’s with the high stall converter.
What is the temp running at with the new cooler??
Like on a really hot day
With the new torque converter installed, and I cut out the Chevy emblem to allow more airflow(which I will make a video about). Cruising on the highway it’s about 175 to 185. But with city driving it does want to climb up to the 190s but it cools back down fairly quick and rarely gets that hot.
The stock t/c was behind the bowtie also, why didn't you leave the stock one in and have 2 coolers? Also wouldn't bypassing the engine radiator help in keeping the fluid cooler since your not getting the 210degrees from the engine coolant?
I could’ve left it but it probably wouldn’t help much more. Also you want the fluid to go through the radiator because it brings it up to the operating temperature quicker. You typically want it to be around the 150 to 180 range.
John Vesely 150-180? Mine runs 193 during the day, I live down the road from you so going down spid I'm at 193. I thought running temp on a 6l80 was 180-200? And towing or in 4x4 keep it under 230. I have a 12 silverado 4x4.
You don’t really want your transmission to go over 200, it shortens the life quite a bit. Heat is what kills transmissions.
John Vesely yes we all know heat is what kills transmissions but the info your giving out on temps is a little off, you must be going off old school info, newer transmissions run hotter especially the 6l80 ,you must have a 4 speed.
I have the 6l80e and it never ran over 200, it was always at 170-180. Do a quick google search, they don’t advise you to constantly run over 200 and the fluid breaks down at 260. Varnishing happens around 220. It’s just a rule of thumb to keep it under 200.
Same as the B&M 70266 here. AC Delco for 90's GM trucks www.amazon.com/dp/B000C9F4Z0/?coliid=I211IIJUM9S0LT&colid=2KIZSKFBYRXN4&psc=0&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
