I too read the entire post. Most informative I must say!
I live here in the Northern part of the Mid-Atlantic where temps. soar to the 90's in summer and get quite cold in the winter @ 20-30 degrees.
I'm preparing to install the CD 278mm 3000 convertor, Hypertech 180 degree thermostadt and Dearle +2 qt. trans pan with temp. gauge in my '00 Silverado.
I already have the TransGo HD2 kit and Sonnax billet servos installed. Tires are 32" and gearing is 4.56. Trans is 4l60e.
Would I be better off to bypass the radiator all together or plumb the Tru Cool 40K in series with the return line to the trans?
If I bypass the radiator all together, There's no need to plug the trans cooling line in and out fittings @ the radiator?
I didn't really see where this was discussed, (I don't think), other than I recall someone said to just leave them open. If I wanted to plug them, what would I use?
Thanks for the feedback. I want to get this right.

I can't remember for sure when I read the 40K install post, but does someone offer pre fabricated brackets to help simplify the cooler install?
Thanks, V1
Thanks.

Damn. Nice thread; subscribed. Any updates on GMT900s? I have an aux trans cooler and want to upgrade, and I'm looking for the most simple way to swap them (without using rubber hoses and clamps to tie to the stock hard lines and a board for a mounting bracket
)
