Derale oil coolers have been around for many years.
I would imagine that tranny fluid cooler would also
be a winner. Derale coolers were very popular for
motorcycles in the past.

Lockheart was another popular brand of cooler.

Netters

I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but it seems to me that as the air
is blowing through the front grill, we're trying to cool 1) the external
trans cooler 2) the evaporator for the air conditioner and 3) the water
itself that has already been warmed by the first two and the radiator that
has been pre-heated by the engine which also has an Oil cooler and a
Transmission cooler built in.....now it seems to me that that's a whole lot
of work for the rad to do....

So to take some of the strain off of the radiator has anyone figured out
where to put some of these 'coolers' other than in front of the
radiator....maybe combined with an electric fan???

Just askin' !

Thanks

Mount it on either side of the radiator.
