Re: Transmission Mods

Tom,

Does the flow through the stock cooler hold for all SVXs or just the older ones with the clogged screens? It is surprising that a double pass cooler could be so restrictive. If one bypasses the stock cooler, I would have to imagine that one would want a high capacity cooler. What size/capacity would you suggest? The one thing that concerns me is the airflow restriction that a large cooler would cause if sandwiched between the condenser and the radiator.

On the valve bodies, they are $350 but what can I expect for labor costs and won't I have to ship them my old valve bodies and wait to get them back? Thanks for the input.
