The Mishimoto Transmission Cooler targets the factory cooling shortfall on the Duramax L5P 6.6L, where fluid temperatures climb fast under towing and heavy load and heat is what wears a transmission out. The tube-and-fin core adds 245% more core volume, 137% more frontal area, and 173% more external fin area than stock, giving the system far more capacity to pull heat out of the fluid and hold temperatures in a safe range. All-aluminum construction handles the demands of stock and modified trucks, and the cooler reuses the factory transmission line connections for a complete bolt-on install with no adapters or extra plumbing.
