If you don't mind me asking, what new radiator are you using for the transmission? Definitely seems like something I want to do eventually while working on the cooling.

Its a custom CSF Dual pass bar & plate heat exchanger (HX) which is far superior to a 14-tube crossflow heat exchanger. As you can imagine, the fluid comes from the transmission, goes through the engine radiator and then into the driver's side of the flat HX, crossing through to the other side in the most direct path which does not always equal to full saturation to reduce BTUs. From the passenger side, the fluid leaves the HX and via 3/8" aluminum tube, passes next to the catalytic converter and exhaust system all the way to the eLSD and back the same way to the transmission. Does this sound like a great engineering design?
I plan to have a kit available for just the flat HX and adding the driver's side Aux HX to this system and another means of separating the eLSD to use a pump through a cooler of its own.
