I have a B&M tranny cooler, it works perfect and I think it was only around 100$ bucks. They have them in the summit mag

Probably Hayden brand. The Stack Plate design is more efficient than the Tube & Fin type. >>

Earls oil coolers are the best quality oil coolers in my opinion hands down

 

[turbotman]

All of the stacked plate coolers are built by LONG corporation and put into fancy boxes that have B&M,Earls and other logos on them etc. Long is owned by the DANA Corperation and is the biggest oil & trans cooler manufactuer in the world. All of the big three have used long brand coolers as OEM for at least the past 15 years. The tube & fin style coolers are no longer used except in cheap jobber set-ups. Here is a link to the long brand brochure: http://www.transtar1.com/dbImage.asp?ID=597

Pick out the one that has the highest GVW & BTU rating and you can't go wrong. Call some of your local transmission shops to find out which ones carry long brand coolers and you will find a much better deal on the same coolers marketed under different fancy names. I kept buying B&M coolers for premium prices untill I noticed that all of them had a tiny "LONG" brand logo stamped onto them.....did some research and have been saving my money buy buying directly from the source.:biggrin:

I have a 28,000gvw hayden and my trans temps are below 160

Earls oil coolers are the best quality oil coolers in my opinion hands down

I also have a earls engine oil cooler, looks great and works good. They are a bit pricey though, then again so is everything else

 

[Two T's]

Thanks daily drifter will check it out today when I go to work at Oreilly's will see what we got in stock.
Thanks

Get the BM supercooler. It is a little more expensive but will save you $ in the long run keeping you from spending $2800 on a rebuild.
