COOL COMMO

We’re at a point with Guido’s VK wagon where we need to sort out a radiator and oil cooler. Our biggest problem is space, as the 355 stroker engine combined with the TH700 transmission take up a lot of real estate and haven’t left us much room to play with.

So we’ve called in Norm from Aussie Desert Coolers. I respect him and what he does, and I know he might not be crazy about what I’m asking for, which is to put a transmission cooler inside a radiator.

He works on a lot of high-performance vehicles and combining those two is not ideal. However, in this case, the car will have around 400 horses and will be used as a cruiser. That’s not a big number these days and the relatively easy use means we can take a liberty or two.
