I'm local to them and I can tell you they are great in person too. I just picked up a bunch of parts from them this week. Now I have everything I need except the transmission... plus I still have to figure out how I'm going to wire the rear diff cooling pump and read the temperature.

There's 36 pages of instructions that come with the transmission cooler kit. They look very clear and well written to me, just breezing through them.

There's no kit or single part number. Here's a list a guy at WBL Ford came up with for me. I think it has most of the parts. There's no instructions for doing the differential cooler either.

Yeah - almost amazing parts hours. Their high volume low price strategy must really be paying off.

I like to disassemble things.

Rick from Track Mustangs Online reported the following a couple of days ago...

For those with a 2015/2016 GT350 that don't have the diff cooler Ford heard you and put together a kit just for you. No availability date or pricing was given but it should be available soon. I also don't know if this will work on a regular Mustang GT but give Ford Performance a call and tell them you read it on TMO.

The kit includes the production pump, lines, and heat exchanger. The pump is modified for simplified wiring (non PCM controlled). It comes with a harness and a simple switch for the dash. It also has a thermostatic switch, so turning the switch on the dash really just energizes the circuit, but it needs to reach a certain temp to begin circulating fluid.

I wish I had known that a few weeks ago...

Of course - I wait over a year before buying the parts to do a diff cooler, and within days after I finally break down and do it I hear Ford is working on a kit.

I'm not understanding why you'd need the dash switch in such a configuration. If the diff temp gets to the point where it requires cooling why not just let the thermostatic switch do its thing?

Patience appears to be key with this platform. Given enough time Ford Performance will provide what is being requested.

I checked out the installation instructions on the PDF online. Very detailed and lays out not only the cooler install, but the transmission swap as well. Hopefully I will have it disassembled this weekend

So I got my car for MSRP, if I purchase both kits, it's like I paid ADM... perfect.
