Just wondering if anyone has noticed a rise in trans temp after installing a larger exhaust. I have a 4" down pipe to a 5" pipe and i noticed the exhaust is only about an inch away from the upper tranny line from the cooler. it's not over heating, but it is definetely higher then before. thanks

Could you used a chunk of header wrap to insulate? The starter is also very close and could benefit from the same...

yea, i was thinking the same thing. i think it's all i can do, i had to take the down pipe loose from the v-clamp. i was a pain but it's done now. i think i will try the header wrap. thanks
