I'm thinking of putting one of these on the Silverado. Anyone

had any experience with the concept of



increasing the oil supply to keep it cooler?

Followup to my last ...







I assume your Silverado has a transmission fluid temp gauge as

well as



an engine temp gauge. My Ford F-250 Super Duty does, I know. If

I were



noticing higher than normal transmission temps while towing I'd

be more



inclined to add an axillary transmission fluid cooler rather than

just



increase the capacity of the transmission pan.







If I am not mistaken your truck has the Allison transmission.

From what



I've heard, it is a superb transmission for towing ... probably

the best



thing GM has going for it in their trucks. Unless it's getting

hotter



than normal, I'd leave it alone. Just my humble opinion.











Here's an interesting and informative piece about Allison

transmissions. I'll probably just leave



mine alone for a while. I've never seen the temp get much over 200.
