It worked fine. It made the oil temp and water temp the same. Unfortunately they were the same at 200 degrees. That with a Griffen aluminum radiator 19"X31"X two rows. The 200 degree oil was OK but 200 degree water is not. It was also very heavy. I cut it open and recovered the air/oil cooler and it now cools the transmission oil. Lynn E. Hanover
