    Default Which cars have good size Factory ATF/Oil coolers?

    Hi,

    Am looking to find a car that's got a good sized oil cooler to use.
    At the moment only one can think of is Commodore with Towing Pack which is a bit hard to find.

    What other cars have decent sized oil coolers, I'm looking to use one as a transmission fluid cooler.

    So probably Half the size of an A4 sheet of paper at minimum size.

    Cheers.

    Yep, pick a part & either late model Commodore or Falcon would be your best bet for second hand.

    I think Magnas from the TN/TP era had a good sized oil cooler. Another option while trolling the wreckers.

    Any supercharged V6 Calais or statesman will have a factory fitted trans cooler.

    I'm not sure of the quality of them, but Super Cheap Auto do a range of transmissions coolers from A5 to A3 sized.

    I have a Denso cooler that was fitted to a Magna from the late 90's. It's a good unit!
