    oh god NOOOOOOOOO

    hahaha yea bro, i blew up my radiator on xmass eve, 2 weeks later when i had all the bits i installed it, with a trans cooler, heres a link to my thread but ill also tell you

    thrans coolers are a pain in the ass when you dont know what your doin with them, easy when you do tho lol

    ok first you have to sort your mounting point, im guessing youve got a trans cooler kit from repco or supercheap, so ittl prob have these long cable tye looking things, these hold it on to the radiator but youll want to get your hoses on before you attach it!

    this is the way i have mine (aparently it dosent realy matter what way you do it, but this is the way ive got mine and it works flawless)

    bottom metal hose (from the trans) runs to the bottom radiator bit
    then from the top radiator hose bit thingy around to the bottom of the trans cooler (this is the disputed bit - cause if it flows from the bottom to the top there is no air bubbles in the fluid BUT its a faster cycle if you go from the top to the bottom flow wise - ultamitly its up to you)
    then from the top connecter of the cooler back to the last remaining mettal hose, the higher one, thats the one that leads back to the trans

    i hope that was what your lookin for!

    here are my 2 posts on it

    in a hurry, what goes were

    ummmm is that the radiaor that just went bang? yup it sure was!!

    you dont turn a holden off

    you power it down!


    for any one who asks, holdens dont leak oil, there marking there territory
