Cool man. It really helps to keep things cool and help the discs and the trans last longer. Yea, I think our 6l80's are pretty stout inside. Way back when mine took a dump, at 19k, the filter exploded and tiny pieces of plastic went all through it. There was a TSB about the filter and a high fluid spike from the pump being shimmed incorrectly causing it to either crack, or explode, mine did the later. It got fixed under warranty by GM, they rebuilt the entire trans and put a brand new converter in to be safe. I remember seeing all the internals and the clutch discs looked pretty thick.
