[A/S] Add'l trans cooling for '96 K2500 Suburban 454

[Stan Nicholson <stan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For those in the recent "trans cooling" thread who have ~'96 Suburban 
454s as pullers, would you mind letting me know just where you 
installed your additional cooler?

I installed a B&M aluminum trans pan and a temp gauge, and things 
looked fine until I towed up a grade that spiked the temp 'way higher 
than I like.  I'm tempted to install a stacked-plate low-restriction 
cooler in series with the existing cooler.  The one trans shop I've 
talked to wanted to take the easy way out and replace the existing 
cooler (which is a stacked-plate design installed in front of the 
radiator) with a larger one.  I can't see a convenient place to add 
another cooler without going under the chassis (perhaps with a unit 
which has an auxiliary fan).  The downside is the increased 
vulnerability to road debris.  Money isn't nearly as important as 
protecting the trans.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
