Trans Cooler question

racejmac · 07-29-2007, 08:20 AM

I'm going to put a trans cooler on my 96. It has a 4L60E trans and I was wondering if anyone could tell me which cooler line at the radiator tank is the return line?

I want to put the external cooler on the return line to cool the fluid after it comes out the the radiator cooler.

typically the pressure side is at the to of the radiator, and the return is at the bottom.

That's what I thought... I wanted to make sure... Seems logical that gravity should play into it...

Most things are not logical after engineers get through with them...
