Transmission cooler w/fan

Suggestions on where to mount a trans cooler with a fan. S/G chassis car - short wheelbase. Thanks.

Rick, Ig and I both run ours in the rear of the car.
I think George's car has enough room in the back for one.

Rick, we mount ours and all of the customers at the rear of the car also. We usually make a sheild so the slicks do not throw stones up to it.

FWIW mine is also mounted out back.

Thanks for the info. We'll see if we can fit one in the rear of the car.

I have mine mounted in the space between the lower front valance and the radiator. It is mounted horizonal and has a fan blowing down. No need for a stone guard.

Get some LAT transmission fluid and you wont even need a cooler. Runs 100 degrees cooler than regular fluid. I didnt believe it either, but its true .
