Can a/c core be used for tranny cooler???
I am about to shove a v8 in my S10 and to help keep it cool, I was going to reroute the transmission fluid from the radiator to an external cooler. I have the a/c core leftover from the 2.8 v6 that was originally in the truck, and I was wondering if it would work as a makeshift tranny cooler. It operates on the same principles as any other radiator-type cooler, and since it is about double the size of most tranny coolers, I figure it should actually do a better job of it. There's even a nice hidden place behind the radiator where the core was originally bolted. The thing that worries me is that I've NEVER heard of someone doing this before. So is it feasible or just wishful thinking? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I won't agree or disagree on your opinion of comp cams, but when I put a new cam in the 350 in my 76 Vette I went with Howard's and have not been disappointed. With the junk coming out of China these...
