Default PS cooler

Alright guys, you've sold me on a turn one pump. I'll get that this week sometime, but i also need a PS cooler. I'm really leaning toward a Stock c6 or a c5z but i want to know what you what you all have for after market coolers. I'd really like to know what fittings you all used, what coolers, etc, that way if i do go after market i can just buy the stuff all at one time.

Thanks guys!

looking at the c5 zo6 p/s cooler on my vette. i think any good automatic transmission cooler would work just fine. i plan to add one to mine and mount it in front of the radiator

where can you get one of those turn one pumps cheap?

I added a C5 Z06 cooler last year and continue to boil fluid. Last Friday ran 220 miles at Hallett in 30 minute sessions. Was only about 80 degress ambient and had a mess after every session. Running 305 R-compound square. I wonder why I continue to have issues when so many others don't.

I've run "standard" PS fluid and last year switched to Valvoline Synpower. No help. If anything the Synpower seems to have a lower boiling point.
