4. Compatibility: Our Thermal Bypass Valve is engineered specifically for the 8HP70 and 8HP75 transmissions, ensuring a seamless fit and reliable performance.
5. Peace of Mind: You can hit the road with confidence, knowing that your transmission is protected from the perils of overheating, no matter where your adventures take you.

How it works:

This thermal bypass valve is a low cost solution to eliminate the thermostat and block flow through the heater circuit. Fluid flows through the cooler circuit only, exactly as if the stock thermostat was fully hot/open.
