TH350 cooler flow
I'm just finishing up putting a new Griffin cross flow aluminum radiator in my 66 Bel air. Now I know that the transmission fluid flows out the bottom fitting on the TH350 and back into the top fitting, but which way are they supposed to go into the cooler in a cross flow radiator?
I've been looking over a bunch of different forums and they all say different things. Some guys are saying that you have the fluid flow from the transmission to the bottom fitting on the radiator, then out the top of the cooler and back to the transmission. Some guys are saying that you route the fluid out of the transmission to the top fitting on the radiator, and back to the transmission from the bottom fitting on the radiator. The cheapo aluminum radiator I had in there before was a down flow, so the cooler just flowed side to side.
So what do you guys think is the correct way??1966 Chevy Bel Air, 2 door post, 355/TH350
1967 Ford Galaxie 500, convertible, 289/3 speed
1973 Plymouth Road Runner, 400/A833
1981 Chevy K20, 350/TH400
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
