Yeah, the idea of the "cooler" in the radiator is actually to keep the tranny fluid closer to a constant temperature band, warming it in cold weather and cooling it under load, keeping it in the 180-210 range as I understand. I recall that Jack Cox/HenryRifle installed a small tranny "cooler" in his '34 Coupe that had a thermostatic valve to modulate the flow through the cooler, to not overcool the fluid.
Don't think I've ever seen an AC Condenser/Tranny Fluid combo heat exchanger before, but I don't see why it couldn't work, especially in your climate.
Edit - Looks like the RAM trucks have used one for several years!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/23342597165...85b9861cd5c549Last edited by rspears; 12-12-2024 at 08:41 AM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
