Stall converter Install soon

[VendettaV8]

Got a few questions....

ok so I understand how to remove the transmission... no prob....

but I was wondering if anyone had any info on installing a tranny cooler....

and if you guys thought I should remove the check ball capsule, supposedly yields faster lockup?

would replacing the flexplate while im in there be a smart move?

Check this write-up out, installation of a cooler on the 4L60E. Brent Franker has a great how-to on his site also. http://www.zmydust.com/trannycooler.html http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/94Z/trannycooler.htm

It definitely wouldn't hurt replacing the flexplate, yours may be prone to cracking soon if it's stock. IIRC a TCI unit is <$100.
