Bell housing coolers.
2 Attachment(s)
So the new transmissions I'll be running need to be mounted using a race plate. I was planning on using the dual cooler bell housing I have, but I don't see how I can plumb them to work with the race mount. I don't have either of these in front of me, so is this a non issue, or am I going to have to run a different style cooler? Any suggestions?

a set of old style plates that go between the engine and bell housing.
|
The boat came with the old style bell housing that has one plate cooler on each side. The issue I see, is that the plumbing is going to hit the plate. So are you saying that, that style will work with this set up? The bell housing in the picture, I don't plan on using, there are no coolers in it.
|
I'm not familiar with that setup, but I can take some measurements off my dual housing if it'd help.
|
I may just have to wait until everything shows up and figure out what I'm keeping and what I'll reuse. Transmissions are all new to me, so I'm a 100% newbie in this area.

I found one of the bellhousing coolers was adequate for the trans in my case.
|
So are these coolers for the trans only? Or, one for transmission and one for engine?
|
Mine originally used both coolers for engine oil with an add on cooler for the transmission. Now I'm using 1 of the bellhousing coolers for oil and 1 for trans. I'm using the stock merc coolers with 8 ( I think) plates. There are coolers for the bellhousing that have more plates for increased cooling capacity also.
|
I haven't had much of a chance to dig into how mine are rigged yet, but I'm pretty sure it was like yours. One engine oil, one transmission. What drives are you running on your boat?
