Seen a PWR one on Ebay, it measures 280x200x19 for $130... Is that big enough? What size do you have? Where did you get it from? How much was it?Where is the best place to mount it? I will have a wog cooler.BTW tried the search but it only came up with tranny coolers for a 6sp autoCheers Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just after some ideas on what other people have fitted so as I have a rough idea on what to get and a rough size of what im able to fit..I just saw that I spelt transmission wrong so the search had alot more answers this time round.. I like hiddeous' setup with the cooler mounted infront of the drivers wheel.. Now just need to find a cooler that will fit that position.. I think the PWR cooler I linked up in a previous post would fit.. But I think he fabbed up his own mounts so that's gonna be a pain...I think the majority of people are running the tranny cooler on its own without the radiator one, so im gonna head down that path to..Anymore options on coolers guys??
