    looks like mud and other road gunk would end up clogging it up... and god forbid if you hit then ran over some small animal....

    This has been on my list for a while... had one on my camaro LOVED IT. Makes a pretty big difference on the temps, maybe not 20-50*...atleast 15-20 though. Even if it does get mud/dirt in it, just make sure you hose it out every once in a while. I know they make steel and aluminum...i feel aluminum is less likely to rust.
    blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum

    Had one on my Silvy. For the price, I think they're worth it. Never checked to see if it lowered temps though.

    Why would you remove an auxiliary cooler just because you put a deeper pan on...? The cooler the better...

    In extremely cold temperatures and with too much cooling agents (pan, aux. coolers, etc), you can run too cool to where the fluid begins to get too thick. If you got to that point, you could install a thermal bypass or buy a cooler that already has one. But I would never remove a transmission cooling source. It's more important to have it in the summer.
