Transmission Cooler

I'm assuming you must make your own taps for feed/return lines on the tranny cooler? And install a pump, considering the unit is a "sealed" transmission, there are no pre-made

The 7at does have a factory oil cooler that is within the coolant radiator. You can use those line. No need to drill and tap new connection

The best way to do it is install a temp gauge & find out what type of heat you are generating for your driving style/application & install the proper size cooler based on the BTU load.

Ok so I bought a 12 row cooling unit but I messed up and only ordered the radiator part without any hoses or bolts or anything at all and was wondering if someone knew where I can purchase that? Post a link if you do is greatly appreciate it! I'm just looking for the lines and all the needed parts to run the install. Thanks for your time guys
