...about the launches. The truck has a factory trans cooler.

I don't get any challenges at a light anyway. I'm just another Z71 sitting there looking bone stock except for the Corsa tips. This is rednecksville. The muffler shop here makes a fortune putting true duals out the rear of just about every truck here. I guess they like the soot on the front of their bass boats. They will screw with you in traffic too. It's gonna be fun for sure.

Forgive me if this sounds stupid, but did you use the B&M cooler for the trans, or as another cooler for the heat exchanger on the Radix?

no just an extra trans cooler .. factory cooler is way too small for my heavy truck i see 210 deg before i did the extra cooler now its down to 185-195

but hey thats not a bad idea as the radix comes with the setrab trans oil cooler anyway so there should be no problem with just adding and extra cooler in line to the radix....
