Alternative transmission cooler location? VT2 4l60e LS1

[Lele]

If I read the workshop manual correctly (well quickly scanned it actually) then the stuff is at the front of the vehicle in the following sequence; the engine radiator, aircon radiator, supercharger radiator and lastly oil cooler front most.

Packaging is always a compromise but I always liked the VW approach of two small intercoolers each side of the central radiator as they always got cool air... stacking radiators always means the poor radiator at the rear of the stack gets the hottest air (which seems conceptually wrong).

Good luck with it all

Thanks for your efforts ! Really appreciate it.

despite being cold recently car has stayed cool even after a few good pulls. I suppose I can sit it up front in front of intercooler but the issue it’s twofold with space shortage front to back and side to side.

To all interested, ended up mounting behind trans under output shaft. Gets heaps of air flow plus has auto switching fan had to make up a bracket for it which was abit tricky but new auto goes in next week and will spend some time on dyno.

happy to update anybody interested

Thanks again
