You can make one yourself that includes most of the same elements or use a kit from DRM or similar forum vendor. DRM kit may be less costly. The GM kit pumps the transmission fluid to the front of the car where it is cooled in a Fluidyne Stacked Plate cooler that is mounted in front of the radiator. They use a Weldon pump. The cooler is themostatically controlled by a thermostat that is attached to one of the fins on the transmission case.

They use a 3/8 pressure rated hose that goes through the right side rocker panel to get the fluid to the cooler. Pump is hard mounted to the frame on the passenger side behind the rear wheel well liner and above the area where a Z06 rear brake duct runs. There are some issues with this lay out and I recommend you also investigate a DRM cooler.

Bill, Thanks for the information. The DRM kit has a pump and a radiator but doesn't have a fan. How does it cool the fluid then since it's inside the wheelwell? Where is the airflow coming from?

Has anyone figured out how much extra oil volume is needed? Or does everyone just run stock max oil height?

We are using a the Z06 brake scoop. There is plenty of air flow to the cooler using that spot!!!
