I was thinking about power steering coolers today.
Does anyone know what kind of temperatures a non-cooled system gets up to when 1) normal street driving? 2) auto-x? 3) track days? |

I haven't read the Ls1.com thread yet.
I was asking because while searching for a replacement radiator I realized some of the replacements had the transmission coolers in the side tank. I was thinking about plumbing the PS into that cooler. If PS coolers run hotter than coolant temps under conditions 1-3 above (or even 2-3) then it would be worth while. Even adding an additional air to PS cooler would help even more. I shall now read the LS1.com thread..... oh, I also have one of the IR thermometers. You'd think I'd realize this and check my fluid temps! |
