Seems it would have more CFM for a 515 dollar cooler. Too much money for me to justify. Double pass is nice though.
They have universal fans. Not sure if it would fit that particular cooler. They also have a single pass 25 row for 240. I didn't see those when I linked a cooler earlier from their site. I just like the warranty!
Looks nice actually.

And you suggest?
I don't know what doing but if you have the room to fit it, a junkyard ford 6.0L transcooler with some cheap fans controls the heat in my race truck no problem. 2 fin and tube derale trans coolers were pathetic.

I ordered the Derale one I posted above from Jegs for a couple bucks more and free shipping.

I agree, have tried both and there is no comparison.
I run the fluidyne with the fan/shroud

I ran the double stacked cooler. Make sure you run the fan on a manual switch, Mine didn't kick on even at 190*.

I'm possibly doing a transmission swap with a member on here my 5spd for his auto stuff. Should I just not even bother with the factory cooler/heat exchanger and order some type of aftermarket cooler to run under the truck?

I ordered the BD.
The derale is fine, i just wanted the best i could get for the race truck. I'll put the derale on my 08', its just a dd truck.
Thanks for the tip, i got it without the install kit. My current setup already uses a manual fan and ha stainless braided lines so everything will just swap over.

I noticed a 30* drop daily driving. Never got above 170* even in Nashville traffic in 100* weather. I used to have overheating issues at the track. With the cooler it never got above 190* at the track. Before it would hit 190-200 within 2-3 passes.

BD double stack 5/8" here and it keeps my race truck trans cool with no issues. Ive got 2 derale's in series on our other truck and they work good just take up more space etc. I will continue using the bd coolers on my stuff from here on out nice piece. I however did not use there install kit I mounted to bottom of bed fit perfect between the bed cross supports and then ran -10an female to -8an male reducer with -8an hose up to -8an to 1/4" npt fittings in trans.
