Hey guys.
Looking for some information regarding the installation of an oil cooler.
I've located the lines running from the gearbox to the radiator. But I am unsure of the correct/most efficient way to go about plumbing in the new cooler.
On other car's I have seen, the cooler is run in parallel with the radiator to cool the transmission fluid. This is what i wish to achieve with my own car.
What have some of you done with your instillation?
Kosti, have you done something similar?

Bloody Database!
What I primarily need to know is, which is the hot line and which is the cold line from the radiator?
I want to intercept the cold line from the radiator and run it to the external cooler then back to the transmission.

Heres one I prepared earlier.
The trans line coming to the bottom of the radiator you leave, You just basically put the transcooler in the trans line before the top radiator connection.
