Replacement for the power steering cooler?

[Racer X]

Long story short, I just broke the hose fitting off of mine. I'm going to try to find a radiator repair shop in a few hours, but in the event that doesn't pan out, what are my options for it's replacement?

Can I use a small tube and fin transmission cooler? A stacked plate cooler?

Let me know, T minus 7 days until the convention and I haven't even started the car yet.

Any PS cooler or oil cooler should work in a pinch. Might even be able to use a heater core from something.

****, you could probably just loop the inlet hose to the outlet hose and run it without a cooler, just don't dry steer back and forth on the pavement too much.

I am sure Mike has some good used ones.

...I bought a new one from Ford several years ago. I'll see if I can dig up the part number...of course it is probably discontinued.

Found it: F1OY-3D746-A

Good luck!

Given the time constraints I'm under, I went and bought the smallest transmission cooler I could find.

Fingers crossed...
