Too Big Tranny cooler?

[TexasBronco]

I know that bigger isn't better in this case because too big may cause blockage of the radiator. Ok Now for the question if I got a 12x15 cooler, is that too big? I am running a cowl induction hood and that would help with cool down so....any suggestions. Also does NAPA or similar store sell tranny coolers? cause the one I am using for this example is on Ebay, and I would rather be able to pick it up now.

Try this cooler. This is the one I use and I bypass the radiator. it is an excelent proven design used on big trucks and motor homes. Keeps my C-4 at 160 to 170 even in the calif deserts crawling and climbing when it is over 100 out side. I mount in front of radiator. They have several sizes to choose.

I have a stock three core radiator, a 4 x 8 P/S cooler, and a 7 1/2 x 10 trans cooler. ;D I have also done the serpentine set up with Chuck's reverse rotation fixed pitch fan, shroud, and dual 9" pusher fans. Living in New Mexico and running at about 170 degree's on a 90 degree day. I let you know when summer comes about it cools (we have 110 degee day's).

too be honest I don't know but using common sense I would think the problem would occur during the winter and not the summer for oversizing-

eh I may be wrong-
