Need help diagnosing a clutch/tranny problem

Nick is right on with the diffy cooler connections. Why not vent it off the small top plug hole ? The hose I have coming off the fill plug hole shows a slight discoloration for about 2 inches and then there are no signs that the oil has been pushed any higher. It works for now. Stupid part is that I have to disconnect it to check lube level.
Nick, have you installed coolers and if so who's parts have you had success with ???

I remember this thread: Differential Oil Cooler and somehow I also remember somebody using the Maximum Motorsports diff cooler... which costs, like, over a grand, parts alone... I think Doug might be able to squeeze by with just the whistle vent....

Uhhh, if you tried, you could bump the price tag of that little drag strip venture up to around five grand, you know....
