just thinking while disassembling my engine bay.  can you use the ac condenser for a tranny cooler?  does it make any sense to? 

I'm thinking of pulling the condenser because the ac hasn't worked since I bought it.  don't intend to have it fixed either.  I like the T's too much.  thanks.

Sure, you could, but why? A regular auxilliary(?) cooler will be much better. If you're gonna remove the cond., just go ahead and get a good quality add-on cooler, and use it. The A/C condensor would really be too restrictive, anyway. Trans cooler lines really don't have that much pressure going thu them, so adding more restriction(condensor) would not be a cool thing to do.

thanks, just musing while I cry about what I'm going to find when I open up the bottom end.
