Hey all,
so it's become obvious to me that I need a transmission cooler set up. With 330 hp and using a 901 box, it's going to start destroying gears (already did this past weekend at Road Atlanta). So, what is everyone using and how are they set up? What pump & cooler? are you using a resevior/tank? Where is the cooler mounted? and where are you getting the oil in and out of the trans? As you can see, I'm a complete newbie about this, need to educate and do as quickly as possible...I'm running out of transmissions! Pictures would be wonderful... thanks!! |

OK, so here's the current "plan".
I'm sitting on 3 901 tranny's - only one has the LSD (actually, 4...one is now for parts missing a 4th gear). I'm going to put an oil cooler/pump in - already had a cooler from somewhere (been sitting in a box in my parts bin) and just got a Tilton pump. Going to install fittings on two of the transmissions to accept the cooler lines. The one with the LSD will stay on the car, one without will stay in the trailer in case we need to do a swap. We'll see how this goes. If I quickly go through one - or both - of these, then we'll go to Plan B... so, anyone else got pictures of your cooler/pump set up? BTW Cracker...VERY nice. Got more pics and details of the car you can send me? send to naro@carolina.rr.com thanks |
