Whats that little cooler

[Photonfanatic]

First time I ever noticed some odd little cooler up by my radiator. The hoses disappear of into the mess of other stuff under the engine and I can't easily trace them. Is there some kind of factory transmission cooler on the 1994 GT? I have a manual trans. Or perhaps its some kind of power steering fluid cooler? Its roughly 4"x12". Those are not exact but that is just a guess. Didn't measure it.

It's a power steering cooler, GTs have just a loop, Cobras get a little nicer IIRC. I took mine off when I did the blower install, "supposedly" there shouldn't be a difference in performance unless you road race/auto X the car.

Well its more than just a loop, its a full on cooler of some kind.

Must be a 5L thing. Lol I guess ford tried to solve the never ending issue with whiny power steering pumps. Lol

I'm glad that my car came with one. I've had power steering pumps fail in an Fbody and a VW because of excessive heat caused by extended high rpm operations. As far as I can tell my power steering pump is stock, so that I means I've got 235k miles on it, and it still works well, even though the car is tracked.

Yep, that's it rzr5.0. My power steering pump is still whiny though lol
