Trans cooler question

Greetings folks,

A quick question - where the tranny cooler lines exit the 200-4R case, which is the high-pressure side? (Top or bottom?)

Thanks very much!

Best,
MAP

Outlet/inlet

Actually, they are both the same pressure--except for whatever resistance in in the circuit. I believe the lower connection is where the fluid is pumped out to the cooler, if that is what you are asking. But ckeck your manual to be sure.

I believe all GM trans follow this convention.

Whoops?

The top outlet "feeds" the cooler and the bottom inlet is where fluid comes back to the trannie. Too use to laying on my back, briefly got up/down/top/bottom mixed up--also looked in my manual.

Thumbs up your latter post is correct.

and a manual is never wrong .......correct? LOLOL

top is out to cooler and bottom is return. This differs from all the other GM trans out there. Most are bottom out- top return.

Just as Bruce and Clay described, Mosher has a picture of trans cooler installation to show this. Its what I used to install my trans cooler.

So the trans fluid in this diagram would go through the aftermarket trans cooler via the top line, then through the stock radiator trans cooler, then return to the trans on the bottom line. Let me know if I am wrong.
