What are your thoughts on this? My 2606 bypasses after the pilot control valve to the radiator for cooling and then back to the rear end.
For those of us who don't plow 12 hours a day anymore we don't need the cooling.
What about disconnecting the radiator feed and instead loop a new same size steel line around the exhaust manifold a few times and then tie it in where the cooling lines were? Then plug the cooling lines to the radiator in case you want to switch back in the summer.
That will get some heated oil to the rear end and tranny quicker and be better on the pump as well. I suppose it would take some experimentation to determine how many loops around the exhaust you would want to get the right temp but it shouldn't be a problem. Same concept is used in some small airplane engines.
