Improved Racing Transmission Cooler Adapter With Thermostat - 160°F

TGM-100-T2 Improved Racing Transmission Cooler Adapter With Thermostat - 160°F

Improved Racing is proud to announce the first direct bolt-on, thermostatic transmission fluid cooler adapter for GM's 6L, 8L, and 10L AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS.

The adapter's built-in thermostat automatically bypasses the transmission cooler until the fluid reaches operating temperature. This eliminates rough shifts caused by overcooling the transmission, reduces wear, and improves horsepower and longevity. You can now get your transmission up to temp quickly and still have all of the cooling capacity you need for high load activities such as towing or racing. It's the best of both worlds!

The adapter features standard female -6AN O-ring boss ports that accept optional male adapter fittings for 5/16", 3/8", 1/2" hose barbs or male AN fittings. This allows you to run common rubber transmission cooler lines or braided AN lines.
