Gear oil pump
I was wondering if anyone has installed an aftermarket pump and cooler on their transmissions.
Id like to know what type ( name) of pump
I thought i could use the oil cooler that is usually located on the front ( I have an aftermarket cooler) and locating it in the rear
where did you place the pick-up & return, how did you connect it, etc,
TIA, Thanks

Hey;
I use a generic trans cooler on mine - mounted remotely - in lieu of the stupid OE loop cooler. Threw that abomination in the trash years ago. I simply threaded hose barbed pipe fittings into the existing inlet/outlet ports. I shouldn't think it would be hard to add a pump into the mix. I've thought about that for some time, but still continue to use the original internal pump.

Pump will pump sludge to the top of a tree house if You like... ALso recommend a remote oil filter in the loop, post trans pickup, pre pump, pump before cooler. I used a BMW 3 series remote mount filter. Worked like a champ, dumped the cooled fluid back on top of the mainshaft and Ring and pinion. Use the drain plug as the pickup point for the suction side.

Tilton pump. I had holes machined in the case for the inlet/outlet. If you use the drain, you can put plumbing in a vulnerable place. I also have an internal spraybar targeting the individual gearsets.
I used a 951 oil cooler in the rear wheel well.
If you have a limited slip and you track your car, you need a cooler.
