I tested the restriction of a remote trans filter and SD cooler
I hooked the remote filter back up tonight. Everything is running fine. I was wondering how much the flow was restricted by the filter and the larger cooler so I did a little test... I hooked everything back up and removed the hose from the return line (after the filter and the cooler). The I cranked up the L and let it run with a drain pan underneath the hose. At idle, I was amazed at how much fluid was coming out and the rate it was moving. I did this same test with the stock tran before I installed the SD cooler and it flowed about a 1/4 of what it did tonight. Before it would just dribble out and now it flows like a garden hose. Granted, I do have a Level-10 Transmission with a Super-Pump installed in it. So the increased flow is probably from the upgraded trans pump. Either way, from what I could tell, if the remote filter and SD cooler are restricting the flow, it certainly doesn't show....
