69 barracuda grille depth

It's not about the entire cooling system not being up to snuff, it's about not being able to use the cooler in the radiator because it necks the lines down and restricts them. I figure the heat, the stand alone cooler, because I cant plumb through the radiator due to the line size restriction issue, and the cooler thermostat to maintain temp, it should be just fine. Automatic transmissions dont like excessive heat, and the OD ones are even worse about it. If the O/D trans used 5/16" lines, I woulda just bought repop lines and been done with it. But it doesnt, so I kinda have to go this route. Car isnt a rare one like your 383S it's a 318 coupe. So I cut and mod where necessary including for the O/D trans
