Default Please help: ZR1 diff cooler delete what is needed?

going to be putting a ZR1 rear diff and a Z06 TR6060 in my fathers 2005 base vette and need a little help. I believe I need to get (2) -6 ORB to 6an fittings for the trans and a -6 hose with fittings to loop across the inlet/outlet on the trans since we won't be running a cooler. Is that correct? Now how about the ZR1 differential? I assume we pull the heat sink out, remove any lines that comes with the diff, replace the rear cover with a blank version and then I assume I'll need 2 plugs to seal the diff? What size are those plugs? Are they -6 ORB also? Any help is very appreciated.

Why remove the diff cooler? Granted, it won't be as efficient without the trans fluid going through it, but it will do some cooling.

We have diff pump delete kit in stock. Call or PM us.

The heat exchanger mounted you the differential exchanges heat between the transmission fluid and diff. It does NOT exchange heat with outside air.
