I use that on my car, bypass the radiator as well. Works awesome.

if your mounting in on the radiator (recomended!) then you dont need one with a cooling fan on it. and again you dont want a tube style. So to summarize get the one you linked to earlier. and i wouldn't bypass the stock rad cooler. id run the aftermarket cooler after the radiator.

Yeah I definitely plan on mounting it on the radiator. Summit doesn't list the GVW of the coolers for some reason, I read that 18000 was the one to get.

So you think it should be run together with the stock cooler? Performabuilt recommended bypassing it.

you only bypass if you have had an issue with your tranny. Say a shit ton of clutch material enters the system you CAN flush it out But its better to either get a new rad OR use an aftermarket and bypass. If your tranny is running fine IE no clutch material in the fluid/cooler lines keep the stock cooler in the system.
