7 3L MISHIMOTO TRANSMISSION COOLER UPGRADE

[@driver4818]

It says something when a business specializes in 6.0 Diesel repair but uses a 7.3 for all the grunt work!

[@Corndogking514]

3596Bt the outdated interior is what makes me dislike them. When I drive an 05+ it feels like a brand new truck.

[@rickyzazueta9637]

Wow!

[@ALT_RIGHT]

@@Corndogking514 enjoy the repair bills.

[@jaimegutierrez6402]

I have a 2007 F3 50 with a 6.0 L engine and I installed the MishiMoto transmission oil cooler and I also had this back fit which is a 7.3 L mechanical clutch instead of the electronica clutch for the fan installed and it made a huge difference when I’m pulling my 30 foot RV up and down the hills in the Pacific Northwest. Thank you Bill for all the knowledge and experience that you share online.

[@RX7GSLSEowner]

Eh, I don't worry about transmission temps on my 7.3 ... I have the ZF6! Thumbs up!

[@adamfranks4118]

So glad to see this video. I am working on installing a Mishimoto 6.0 trans cooler into one of my 7.3l F350 bucket trucks and hoped to find a hose kit for the fluid. I had a transmission shop put one in one other truck and they piece-milled adapters and hose sizes to make the cooler work. I will now be ordering two of those Mishimoto hose kits to keep my trucks operating. Thank you for sharing so much valuable information.

[@eformance]

For those who care about the technical specs. The 6.0L cooler is a 26 row cooler, the HD cooler from Ford is a 29 row cooler. This cooler is a 37 row cooler. As far as I can tell, this is just a 6.0L direct fit unit, the only thing that makes it 7.3 specific is the special hoses.

[@everyonelovesfriday2045]

EFormance Engineering wasn’t there two different 6.0 coolers? I used the smaller one in my old 7.3. Also it needs 180deg temp to flash off the moisture out of the fluid especially if you live in a gulf state

[@mitch7.3powerstroke81]

I can vouch, dropped mine substantially. More 7.3 shit Bill!

[@briangrant1254]

Great information, thanks for the video, keep them coming!

[@FishFind3000]

Take spot to 1 million then fix her up.

[@averyalexander2303]

I bet replacing the stock 3/8 inch lines with 1/2 inch lines all the way from the transmission to the cooler would help too, less restriction means more flow through the cooler and less friction pushing the fluid through the lines, so less heat generated too.

[@FredFlintstone21]

Hey Bill about a year ago you mentioned you would make a mishimoto 7.3 tranny cooler upgrade video, and here it is! I did this upgrade to my 02 excursion 7.3, and added temp gauges. I dont know what the temps were before, but with mishimoto 38 row cooler the gauge averages 60 degrees above ambient temp not towing, and 80 degrees towing my 30 foot enclosed trailer. I wish I knew how much the temps dropped. I also added magnefine transmission line filter, and a spal push fan. Thanks for making this video!

[@butchcarter4616]

awesome knowledge you are the man

[@vincentjoyce455]

Love OURS! Huge difference. Would buy again.

[@israelmartinez7089]

Thanks bill keep those videos coming from 7.3

[@gorehammer1]

Just ordered mine so I can relax pulling logs on 100+ degree days

[@Jericho_bella]

If it slows it down to cool it in the 1/2 what does the rest of fluid doing in transmission getting warmer so I do agree with larger cooler keeping temps low but slowing down does not make sense

[@brandoncooper9423]

After 10 years of you making the 7.3 performance mod video . Are there new parts you would do instead of the ones on your videos?

[@joeshearer1247]

I wouldn't say the fluid moves slower through the cooler but it has more fluid in it because of the 1/2 "

[@benjohnson5552]

Is this worth buying for a truck that is just a daily driver that goes back and forth to work and putts around town?

[@ARMASARMY]

ok...Im sold... actually i had been sold on mishimoto long time ago.. but.. were are the mishimoto radiators for the E serie???... no F truck there will ever run hotter than a van, and yet, nothing for us.

[@chadharmon5716]

Love ya bill hope to meet you one day 👍🏻

[@andrewhatton1606]

Weird

[@bhirmiz]

what's the part number for the 7.3 transmission cooler upgrade and the hoses????

[@johnnysierra8562]

Wouldn’t that mitsimoto radiator restrict the main radiator for the motor. Like the air flow to the main radiator would not get enough air. 🤔 Maybe it’s a dumb question. Sorry just a thought

[@JoseRomero-qv9hy]

Will the 7.3 mishimoto tans cooler to work on 05 V 10

[@stayunique91]

I thought Spots engine already came apart. Windowed the block if I remember right?

[@eformance]

He made a hermaphrodite bottom end out of Spot's motor and another one.

[@ilikeboost4764]

stayunique91 yes it did. He threw a engine made of spare parts in but it was all used parts with almost 170k on that engine.

[@FishFind3000]

With having your trans temps that low affect its drivability? Making the fluid a different viscosity or does atf not change viscosity like motor oil?

[@ilikeboost4764]

I'm curious as well. Hopefully someone will explain.

[@Lray4x4]

They have a built in cooler bypass until the fluid reaches a certain temp.

[@shanemartinson5006]

I plan on putting one in my 7.3 this yr

[@christiandavis6316]

Hi my name is Christian Davis I own a 2001 F250 with a 7.3 L diesel motor I have put some work in the truck and I am wondering the work I have done could my truck be able to Hotshot I have put 180cc single shot stock nozzle injectors a bigger KC Turbo I upgraded all my cooling parts to mishimoto and a 5in straight pipe exhaust and I got custom Tunes and upgraded air intake I'm just wondering will my truck hold up to hot shotting

[@CRYOGENICBINKIE]

can this be slightly modified to fit an obs 7.3 with the E4OD?

[@cjromeo309]

Is there anyway to get more flow and less restriction out of the 6.7l power strokes to preserve the engines longevity & reliability without deleting so you can still pass emissions and not have to deal with the stupid EPA and there bullshit.

[@humanacidgaming568]

Did my swap and it’s still over heating even with new 6.0 trans cooler new hoses new trans filter and new fluid and not over filled. No slipping in gears and still overheating just confused at this point. Any ideas?

[@Scott_From_Maine]

That's a stonkin' cooler!

[@caterpillar6nz310]

with this cooler how much of 4r100 could have been saved from a heat death.....?

[@JTW221]

Hey Bill, do you recommend delo 400 15w40 motor to run in my 7.3 powerstroke, iv heard its a great oil and i use it in every vehichle i own, from my 1975 ford 4.9 300 i6 , to my lawnmower and tractor and so on. Is delo 400 as good as shell or better

[@ArizonaCowboys]

steve is awesome

[@Tempsho]

I try not to exceed 215F while towing my 31' TT with my 02 Excursion 7.3L Do you know when this will be available? I don't see it on their website.

[@jareimer4404]

It's a 6 liter replacement cooler that's why he said 5r110 and the reason why you need those hoses (or 1/2 to 3/8in adapter) is because 6 liter uses 1/2 inch line you will find that radiator under 5r110 (which is 6 liter)on the mishimoto website hoses are rerouted a little too I haven't worked on excursion. if you look under 2002 (7.3) ford f350 you will see the cooler he talks about. It fits on your excursion.

[@TheBadSeed3094]

Following, thanks

[@eformance]

This cooler was released years ago, what I can tell from context. My local distributor (RiffRaff) shows them for sale on their website. The price is about $100 more than I paid for a Rockauto 6.0l replacement cooler and about $15 less than the "bro deal" price on a stock 6.0l cooler from Ford.

[@supergrendel]

Either Bill just got out of the shower or it's the Georgia humidity.

[@brendasmith5937]

Bill could you tell me what a healthy temperature range is for the 7.3 trans fluid? I do keep my eye on that like a hawk. What is the cost of one of these coolers?

[@jaronking9484]

When u get around to swapping in the new motor in spot are u going to do another video on it like u did with the parts bin motor that's in it now?

[@Patriot_Guns]

Any tips or video about installing a temp gauge for the trans on a 01 F-350 7.3? Thanks, I love your channel.

[@c.j.rogers2422]

Bill, a question on tired old Spot: can't the 7.3 be rebuilt/remanned to as good as/better than new?

[@skimask5049]

yeah but the rest of the truck is tired bro the doors the seals its not about the 7.3 everything else around it rots

[@ilikeboost4764]

C.J. Rogers yeah but it may take a lot of machine work.

[@OGskunkMASTA]

Of course it can, use as many Motorcraft and other quality parts parts as possible, VERY GOOD machine work, and you're there. The cost will be high but if the body of the truck is good and money is there for it then it's a definite yes! Sometimes it's cheaper to keep her.

[@lukegrimes916]

Hey bill, what do you think about the 6 speed manual transmissions in the 7.3? I've got an opportunity to buy one for a good deal with 390k on the clock

[@thomasbarlow4223]

What kind of transmission would be in my 2001 E450 shuttle bus with the 7.3? Kind of thinking I probably need one of these coolers too

[@brandonruhl4525]

Been waiting for this... when will it be available on their site? link? i still use the 6.0 cooler and ride about 170-195. i don’t like that one bit.

[@jesserebel8387]

what about using the dorman 6.0 cooler with a electric fan?

[@CumminsTech2020]

Sad part is I cant put this in my truck because I got a the 4speed with OD but my truck is also a 1997 F-Superduty with less than 300,000 miles

[@mikesbikes1575]

IMPORTANT QUESTION... Great video, quick question, I saw a video a while back of a trans cooler install. The guy put the cooler in upside down on purpose. His logic was that with a much larger cooler the trans doesn't have enough fluid pressure to reach the top of the large cooler since fluid enters from the bottom, so by installing it upside down the fluid will start at the top travel throughout the whole cooler with gravity. Does this make more sense?

[@tickyul]

For all the Grubillies with a 60k "work truck"..... that has never seen a lick of work.

[@tuffram2165]

I'm going to assume this video has been in the Bill video library for some time based on the fact you have a big coat on and it was 96° here in Bama today.

[@marcuschildress4711]

What's a normal trans temp? Mine runs 190 when pulling and 165-180 when just driving around.

[@rodneyhoskins8187]

Will it fit a 2000 e450?

[@becplumbing660]

I love spot the shop truck

[@gringochoppers]

So where is this Brand made...Sounds like a Japanese name

[@FredFlintstone21]

Do you recommend a deep trans pan as well? I've heard you have to modify to fit in 02 excursion

[@officialyoutubecommentator4357]

The name "Mishimoto" sounds pretty cool! Hey Bill !!!!!!!!

[@fightinggator4398]

Do they make one for a 96 F350 7.3 automatic?

[@grantquinones]

I see you have a refined taste for fine automobiles sir I havw thw 97 f 350 7.3

[@raydornbush]

7.3 for life Bill.... 7.3 For Life personally :) just saying.... maybe even a 6.0 though actually hmmmmm....... nah 7.3 all the way :)

[@joeymcclary5812]

Will this work with a 6.8 Excursion?

[@radioactivematt9058]

If ya got a ZF6 ya don't need none of these silly coolers!

[@Rangerness]

radioactivematt was gonna ask if any upgrades would improve my zf6

[@lukegrimes916]

I just picked one up, any issues I should look out for? It's got 400k

[@TheCumminsturbo2]

The zf has a cooler but that wat makes it the best Manuel trans it’s pressure lubed and cooled

[@ricardorodriguez-se7tp]

When was that video made its hot to be wearing sweaters in this time of season.

[@MADDOO2011]

Good info, thanks !!!

[@jonwm01]

Just curious but does it work with the standard zf trans?

[@dannypederson4054]

put one in my 02 130 all day

[@mr.boostang2064]

I'm here wondering how I can fit this in my 2007 Sport trac 😂 that thing looks like itll hold half of my transmissions fluid

[@mrmtn37]

Freakin expensive. Been using 2 pass heatsinks. Hard to break with $400.00 for this cooler. Getting ready ro build a flatbed and figuring on building a front bumper that will hold a couple gallons of Tranny and a gallon of motor oil. Weld pipes through it fir cooling. Idk mayb it wont do anything?

[@45banjomike]

I thought this would be how to put a 6.0 in a 7.3. we know the benefits, looking for a how to.

[@mdacton]

Will this work ok on OBS? hot days mine runs 210 pulling 28ft enclosed 10k

[@eformance]

The OBS grill area is a lot different than an SD. The OBS doesn't have an intercooler and the stock/HD trans coolers are "half" style that fit on either side of the hood latch assembly. The SD cooler sits really low down behind the bumper, where the OBS just doesn't have the same doghouse height. That said, if you've got time and inclination, you could probably make it fit.

[@Kienitz88]

There's a video on KZbin where someone put a 6.0 transmission cooler in there obs and it fit just fine so it should work

[@joerodriguez5013]

whats the part number for that transmission cooler?

[@GeOrGiAcOuNtRyBoY82]

so will this fit a 1996 F350?

[@williamsmith286]

what's with the jackets?

[@yoski203]

disconnect that crank case ventilator on spot, shell love the cleaner air in her intake.

[@TheBadSeed3094]

How will it install in a E-350 van? Thanks!

[@kaophan1098]

Would love to see you do video on a 6.0 econline van. Any tips to make more reliable power and keeping temps down.

[@barebackpacking]

Did you ever get an answer. Will it fit your e350?

[@clownpocket]

Does it fit a 7.3 van?

[@paulshanlyons8627]

I want to know that also...

[@Joeasia1981]

It's not the same transmission paired with the gas engines, the planets are different the sparg is different and it has more steels and frictions.

[@JustTruckinAroundLLC.]

Anyone know if this will fit into my 2003 E450?

[@mollybags455]

i didnt get that hoses with my cooler

[@agent1atl]

A link to the product might have been good. I think this is it www.mishimoto.com/ford-7-3l-powerstroke-transmission-cooler-99-03.html

[@4joslen]

Purchased one today

[@robertvalderaz7329]

How much trouble to install.

[@TheBadSeed3094]

Following, thanks

[@OGskunkMASTA]

Watch the video, they said it's simple. Cut old lines, clamp new ones, bolt cooler in place, install lines to cooler, start, and you're done. Inspect for leaks.

[@MrLoganFogt]

I put one in my 7.3 a few months ago and it only took me about an hour and a half.

[@noway5231]

Gotta call bullshit here love bill and psh.com but i dont pull a trailer live in the north east snd still see 160-170+ empty with the 6.0 cooler. It us def better than stock hate to call him a liar but 150f max in georgia florida summer with a loaded trailer.......ahhh no way

[@alenribic3932]

To bad they are back ordered till the end of time.

[@manonthemountain7272]

You should have done a DIY segment while you were at it. Too much Talky-Talky. You're very knowledgeable, but we don't watch just to hear your voice.
