| I run the B&M version of the old shogun KoolKan....Trans temp has never been an issue. Still have the Koolkan that I ran before it. Switched because the shogun deal is chromed, and that retains heat. The B&M can doesn't, and seems to cool better. Got it from a racing friend here, brand new, never been used....works for me...and one less thing to wire up Mark Goulette Owner/Driver of the Livin' The Dream Racing dragster www.livinthedreamracing.com"Speed kills but it's better than going slow!"

No, not a need. You can maintain temperature with a cheapo cooler and 8 ft. of fuel hose like many do. |

| Agree 100% and it’s the method used by most bracket racers with door cars. |

Lol, you caught that to? https://postimg.cc/gallery/np3zpruo/"Dunning-Kruger Effect" -a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge. Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue. 4X NE2 CHAMPION. 2020 TDRA NE2 Champion |

| Once again there are those amongst us that think they know yet prove time and time again they are clueless and  as well charter members of the ain’t got shyt nor done shyt worth talking about crowd! The OP does not need a trans pump to maintain trans fluid temps typical in a bracket car and if not for tbe fact that my dragster was built with a Jones trans pump, I wouldn’t have one. |
