EDIT *I've got one now. Thanks*
I would like to buy a thermostatic bypass valve for my trans cooler. I bought my cooler from Dennis but it didn't come with the valve. I thought maybe someone bought a cooler from him and didn't install the valve. Let me know if you have one lying around collecting dust.

Thanks,
David

You don't need it...if you are installing the aftermarket cooler in-line with, and after the OEM cooler.
The OEM cooler has a thermostatic control valve.

i thought about that, but it won't work. the valve is a bypass. so if you run the two in line you will bypass the factory and go right to the aftermarket.

10-4...you're right.

I've got to check the routing of my B&M out...although I usually don't drive it much in the winter.

I'm thinking that the B&M might have a built-in bypass also....:dunno:

Before i installed the aftermarket cooler my temps were 192-200. now they're at 110-140. too cold for my liking. i need the valve, and i think i've got a line on one!

Brian has a valve and so do I. I did not need mine because of living in Atlanta when I installed my Long trans cooler.

I may want to get one, but I don't drive the car in winter that often.
