I am installing a Tranny cooler... I got the fittings to fit the drain and fill plug .
Everything was going fine until I got under the car. The Throttle linkage for the 6 blocks the drain plug. So I was going to tap the case next to the plug and insert the fitting there. My only apprehension is the case in that area has a slight bevel where I want to tap it... Any ideas or other suggestions. Attached image(s) |

I read somewhere that the factory used a cooler to spray directly on the gears to keep the gears cool. Maybe I got something mixed up, but wouldnt an arbitrary location kinda defeat the purpose of an oil cooler? I know you're cooling off fluid, but will it really effectivly cool off the gears? And what do you use to pressurize the fluid?
