Part 1 was covered on the last site.
Part 2 will be covered on this site.
As a quick recap - during Part 1 I acquired a WTA core and used a Bosch electric water pump to push the water through 2 trans coolers and up to a holding tank and then through the core.
This setup worked, but I felt that the heat exchange was not as efficient as it needed to be. The trans coolers only had 3/8" lines on it so water flow was greatly reduced.
For part 2 I am keeping everything the same with the exception of the heat exchanger.
I am going to use a B&M SuperCooler. Here is what B&M has to say about the model that I will be using:
B&M SuperCoolers are 100% aluminum construction and use stamped plates sandwiched together to create one of the most efficient oil cooling devices available. Not only does this unique design provide for maximized cooling through more efficient heat dissipation but it also provides a much sturdier cooler which is practically impervious to flying rocks or other debris. Suitable for all fluid cooling needs including: automatic transmission fluid, engine oil, differential fluid, power steering and turbocharger oil in circle track, road racing, off-road, tractor pulling and monster truck applications.
28,000 GVW
20,500 BTU
11'' x 8'' x 1-1/2''
Seeing as how it can handle 20 500 BTU, I think this is a step up from my previous setup. I will get pics of everything put together once I get this in the mail....
