Im planning to install a universal trans cooler but i dont have any idea how to and ive been researching and couldnt find any . Im curious if you need to add more trans oil after the install . And ive read that okce you add you need to reset or short the trans ecu if not the transmission will be on limp mode

There's documentation on how to properly fill the transmission, see here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...41&postcount=9

I'd suspect that you will need more than the original amount of fluid as you're adding lines and a cooler to the system, how much I'm not sure.

I've done 2 fluid changes on my car and I did not need to reset the ECU.

So a little over 3 months ago I had the Direct Injector on Cyl 3 go bad. I didn't catch it until the damage was done, broken piston, scored bore. I sent out the DIs and PIs for testing after the fact and found that the DI on Cyl 3 stopped flowing fuel once it hit 225F.

I'm now working with Blue Moon Performance http://bluemoonperformance.com/ to rebuild.

Here's a few photos of the carnage and new parts.

Rough specs of motor are as follows:

- Brand new Direct Injectors, lol
- Over bored to 86.5mm
- 11.75/1 compression
- Custom Blue Moon Spec Carrillo rods and pistons
- Reimax oil pump gear
- Piper stg 1 cams
- Blue Moon oil baffle
- Stiffer valve springs
- +1mm on exhaust valves
- Polished intake and exhaust ports
- WPC treatment http://www.wpctreatment.com/about.htm on all moving parts
- non 2013 valve train components
- and other Blue Moon specific tweaks to the build...

It's been a long process, but I should have it running this weekend. I've been working on a number of other supporting modifications, including an Accusump.



I'll post some photos in the near future.
