Its really not though. You just need to envision the goal and do it. Doing is learning, thats how you learn this stuff. This was the first time I took a tranny apart other than swaping solenoids on my sisters saturn. You got to be willing to make mistakes, but learn from them.

The line has to take 200+ heat and pressure. I just use -6 AN line.

I wont do AN lines, yet... But the factory lines use rubber hose in spots so I guess if I just get some that meets or exceeds those standards I'll be good.

Just a random ass question, cause you said your fluid never went north of 175, what would happen if it was at like say, 80* all the time?

Which is why i asked

If driving a car in the colder months with a separate trans cooler, is it possible to have the fluid to cold?

I'm not just asking you I'm asking everyone, I'm bored at work leave me alone lol

Oh no you said to when you should have said too. So I thought you meant did I getit up to cold on the dipstick or something. Yeah if the fluid is too cold it operates differently. Like in the winter when you first start driving before its warmed up it seems to shift hard. Idk, I just like the idea of keeping it regulated then cooling it afterwards. I haven't logged it daily driving on the street yet to see what normal temps are. But 80* after 5 passes at the track hot lapping is pretty good.

my bad, at work so not watching my typing haha

I was just wondering, I plan on a cooler in the near future and drive my car "daily" so, when its too cold for bike ill be driving the camaro till snow falls, thats why I was asking. Dont wanna hurt it lol

Yeah run it thru the rad first. Dude, put a converter in it asap. You'll just love it. I'm a pansy when it comes to being worried about losing street-able DD status with this car, it made it way better and more fun. I think my next focus is 3.73's and LS1 pcm conversion, ghetto style.

I think now I have a daily I'm less afraid to work on my car. I've had to leave my car at school a bunch of times and I hated it

I did yank stall, and 3.73s very huge difference Ad fun. Think I have some pulls n my YouTube

Nice Kevin. A yank converter was one of the first mods i did after installing the ls in my car. I went from running 12.70's all day long to running 12.40's with just the converter.

Good job Kevin, I was proud to see that board light up 12.9! Wish you came tonight, the air was better.

Oh and the temp your seeing is celcius, 80*c is 176*F which is getting hot for tranny fluid IMO.
