I got heat exchanger from vmp, very nice unit, keeps ait at about ambient temps. Does what it supposed to do.
The H/E looks like a major bee-autch to install. The shifter was no fun, but the H/E looks beyond my capabilities (or I would do it). I am in Tucson! Not humid, but REALLY HOT!!! :burn:
Holy resurrection.
I think he sold his Shelby and bought a Camaro SS with a 'SNKLR' licence plate. ;-)
OK guys, so who makes the best H/E? And.... who makes the most affordable H/E? Best bang for buck I guess is where I would end up on this spectrum. Any value to the larger reservoir I see on-line? As an engineer, I am skeptical the larger reservoir will help much.....
The larger resevior will definitely help. It is second law of thermodynamics. The more mass that is there, the less overall temperature rise there will be for the same amount of heat input over the same amount of time. Meaning that if you did a WOT run for 15 seconds with the small tank and a 15 second WOT run with the larger tank ... that larger tank would have lower temps after because the heat was spread over a larger volume. This is all provided that neither system reached equalibrium in those 15 seconds ... which I dont think they would.
Trading it for a 2014 GT 500. (Jk). Lower pulley, cai and Lund tune... Single cf driveshaft and drain goddamn mercron out of trans and pour in AMSOIL ATF synthetic. Thereafter, set of kooks long tubes.
Your last sentence was my assumption. That is, the tank - even with larger volume - would heat up less rapidly than the smaller tank. However, I assumed that the relatively small difference in the tanks versus the volume inside the system would make the gain very minimal. If you know the volume inside the system, then we could easily calculate the value based on the volume gained from the tank. Would be pretty interesting, but basic, math.
