How big is yours and what brand is it? The bigger, the better (or the cooler)............

the one in my VP ute was put on when i had the trans done,its about 1/2 the size of the radiator and seems to do a good job,from memory he said they where about $150 fitted.I had one put on the VS when i had it as well.

Is it just a matter of mounting the cooler and attaching the line to it??

does the cooler you want have 3/8 inch fittings or the anodised screw type??? if its the first one its a matter of cutting the 3/8inch hose to length and attatching the hose clamps to either end of the line and mounting the cooler to the radiator or making a bracket from the top and bottom of the radiator support

I'm assuming most transmission places can order them in etc??
