ADM cooler change in design ?? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

15rs/ss · 06-26-2016, 08:30 AM

I ordered my adm cooler couple weeks ago and finally got around to opening the box and to my surprise it does not look like what i ordered. the cooler looks the same but this one has 2 strait push loc connectors coming out of the cooler. The picture in the instructions even has the 2 90's and 2 factory style hoses. not mine just 2 strait hoses .

We changed to make it better fit more applications - magnasun,whipple,procharger,n/a guys all have different issues.

Now one cooler fits all Camaros with a slight bracket change instead of an entire custom application.

Here was what I said in a pm - Re: strait outlets?

How about some updated instructions. Him

Me -

Bumper cover still needs removed for install.

The only change was the hose,they are soft pre made lines now versus pipe to soft line,the mounting is exactly the same,2 bolts at the top and 2 brackets at the bottom screwed to the bumper and the bottom of the cooler.Unplug the factory hardlines from the radiator by removing the clips that retain themremove them and run ours to the hard lines that come from the transmission on lower passenger side front of the engine.

We send 2 pieces of pipe with rubber plugs on the end that snap into the radiator trans cooler lines old connection point,this allows red fluid not to drip on the ground constantly.

I will add a sheet of paper in the box that says we changed the lines to fit more applications.

Just in case, I just recently install the kit -- I have an supercharger heat exchanger and I had to 'lower' it a bit, but was able to install it. I also noted the results after I did the install...

Just in case anyone is interested in installation details...
