I bought a 1994 Jimmy 4.3 vortec to replace my toyota..the truck needs CPI?! Does anyone have one or know where i can get one used? Gm wants 600$ for new one..n i dont wanna aftermarket brand

GM is the only place I know of for the injector, if that is what you need, since "CPI" actually refers to the system, not a specific part. "Central Port Injection", basically it is a single injector with 6 tubes that run to each intake runner, and odd set-up.

Those injectors are available at Autozone... they're a few hundred bucks if i remember correctly...

run as big of a tranny cooler as you want. just make sure it goes through the factory radiator cooler AFTER that. it will regulate the fluid temp back to the trans. cold fluid is almost as bad as too hot(burning it). auto trannys and fluid are designed to run a certain temp. i've seen a huge cooler on a tow truck not run through the radiator to regulate the temp and the cold fluid actually cracked parts in the tranny (running at around 20 below f.).

There are tranny cooler with thermostatically controlled cooling fans. That would be the best.

I ended gettin a one for a street rods that like 30 inches long n 4 inches tall n mounted it down low where the air goes through the air-damn..basically bridged it off the stock cooler lines..n put a gauge on one of the lines thanx for advise
