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?

Its the best thing you could do for your Truck. It routes the Oil to a cooler usually placed in FRONT of the Rad. Better to have this, than to have your tranny fluid trying to cool off in a 170 degree Rad Tank !!! Transmissions work far better when cool. Also its good to wrap metal or plastic (not my choice)window screen around the front, to keep out bugs.You COULD put it right across the front of your Rad to keep out everything but air.

My Brother works at a Commercial AC/ Heat recovery business. He makes mine for free, with larger tubing (1/2 inch) as well. He makes extruded Fin-Tubes there. they can make a cooler in about 30 minutes start to finish.
