Transmission Cooler Mount and Lines, 1949 Chevrolet Gasser

In this video we make a mount for the transmission cooler and run line from it to the transmission.

I have found that if you replace the drill bit in a hole saw with a longer bit, the saw then has a full dia. rather than the flutes of the bit to piolet the saw. Also I blow the lines out after cutting and then twist up a paper towel and clean the inside of the line and I always get some residual rubber and garbage stuck to the inside of the line. I like the cooler in the middle of the frame just in case of a leak it's not putting fluid directly in the path of the tire. I also like to mount stuff so if all the hardware were to vibrate loose the component won't just fall down, if the cooler dropped down on top of that frame the studs would prevent this with no hardware. It's just one of those things that I find if I plan for the worst it pays off to have the piece of mind. If it can rattle loose it will and with the poor quality hardware we have available I just err on the side of caution. Nice clean installation plus it's isolated with the bushings and serviceable. Most people don't appreciate how much work it takes to make stuff clean and neat, but it looks great.

Thank you very much for your rely. I will use a paper towel from now on.
