how do you hook up a B&M supercooler?
I have a 700R4 tranny and I bought the B&M race cooler without the hardware. What do i need and how do I hook it up. I have two aluminum lines coming from the tranny that went to the bottom and top of the radiator.

Find some way to attactch the cooler itself to the A/C condenser or radiatior itself. There are spectial fasteners for this, but i used zip ties.
Then simply disconnect the existing cooler lines and slightly bend them over to the passenger side so that they clear the RAD. tank.
Now find some rubber hose that will attatch to the cooler inlets/outlets snuggly. Use a hose clamp to be safe. Now find any way possible to route the rubber lines to the cooler. I forgot where i put mine but it went pretty easily.
That should do it.

Im starting to get it. The upper aluminum line that comes from the tranny goes where? to the cooler or radiator? Then the lower aluminum line that comes from the tranny goes where (to radiator or cooler). There are two holes in the radiator, where the two lines from the tranny went and theer are two holes in the new supercooler. That makes 4 holes but only two lines from the tranny.

mount the cooler where ever works, cut the TOP line out of the readiator and run it to the BOTTOM of the aftermarket cooler then run a line from the TOP of the aftermarket cooler to the other end of the line you originally cut. most all parts stores sell reinforced preasure hose or you can use flares and compressions fittings.
