Interesting! I remember the discussion about this system in one of the Z28 videos, but I guess I didn't really think through it.

So you are using the engine coolant to cool the trans fluid - typical
You are using the trans fluid to cool the differential - interesting

Are normal manual trans temps that much cooler than a differential or does this only work because the trans fluid is being "pre-cooled" before being sent back to the diff cooler?

I'll bet that adds a lot of capacity to the trans fluid system!
