Transmission Cooler

What transmission cooler is everyone running? I am going with either a TH350 or TH400 transmission and trying to find the best one out there.

Another vote for B&M. Mine's a 24000 GVW cooler. Got it for $49.95 from summit.

That's the same one I've got. The install was pretty easy except for trying to get the zip tie things through the radiator, there just isn't enough room to work with.

B&M 24,000 here. Only got the bottom 2 zips through though. Snug fit, it's not going anywhere.

Another vote for the B&M 24K cooler. I just finally installed it this weekend. Ties went through w/o a single problem. The unit is tiny and fits nice. The only problem that I had was making the factory line fit over the barbed coupler. I just used a grinder and removed some of the barbs. I went w/ the B&M because of it's size. Most of the other brands have to be larger to get the same cooling as the tiny B&M.

Since I swapped a T56 out for the TH400, I didn't have any cooler at all, so I went with a Perma-Cool fan assisted unit, mounted in the front fender, in front of the wheel. Keeps tranny very cool, even under 800ft-lb launches........
