How about Mobil 1 or other(Amsoil?) synthetic ATF to go with a cooler?

Just at Mr Tokez said...nono for syn in the tranny. It's too slippery. I've used cheapo Dex III/Mercon with great success. I use the $1.20/qt stuff from O'Reilly.

Most use the B&M coolers as the bar and plate cools better than the tube and fin. A size like 7x14x1.5" should be more than adequate.
