So I live down south in Louisiana. It gets hot and humid. I have been driving the gto every day for the past few weeks and on my commute in the afternoon I sit in bumper to bumper traffic. My coolant temps get up to about 217 and my trans temp gets to 207. Then once they get there, I get on the interstate and it don’t drop but to 210-212. I’m not liking that. I put two bottles of redline water wetter in today and it only helped by about 3 degrees. Lol.
So here’s what I have. Stock radiator. I actually just bought it new about a month ago so I’d rather not change that right now. I have a cheap trans cooler up front inbetween the radiator and intercooler. I thought about getting a better trans cooler and maybe relocating it under the car in one of the muffler areas with its own fan. Maybe put a fan on the one I have. Put some fans on the intercooler to draw more air in? What you guys think?
I’m really not too keen on an aftermarket radiator. Short story. My buddy bought three. None of them fit correctly. Including a mishimoto. And the trans cooler in them was nothing but a tube.
