Tranny Cooler Question
Just about ready to finish up my B&M tranny cooler installation. Which is the return line that I have to tap into? Is it the top or the bottom?
Thanks Guys

Why not bypass the radiator and just go through the B&M cooler. I did and it works great. I am sure others will say best to go to radiator first and then to your B&M others will say just the opposite, B&M first then radiator. Top is return line. PS. Just make sure you use the largest cooler like the B&M 70274 if you are going to run your car hard on the track.

Its definately the TOP line and cooler is AFTER the radiator.
Or bypass the radiator completely like Frank did.

If you have a high stall Converter run it through the radiator or get a bigger Cooler. My B&M 24,000 GVW used to be run through the radiator and it never got above 180.
Then a shop rerouted it with hard lines But Ran It Independantly, NOT throught the radiator and now it was getting up to 200+ after a few runs at the track.
I just got B&M's Bigest Cooler shipped to my house yesterday, the 28,000 GVW
, and will swap that cooler out for my 24K one and continue to run it independant of the radiator, as a stand alone unit, and that should solve my cooling issues.
Just FYI
