[Autox] Towing Upgrades

I was told by an old veteran race car driver who has towed just about any
weight car in many kinds of trailers over 40 years now
that if what you are towing exceeds 50% of the factory capacity limits then
upgrades are called for and as you get closer to these limits,
more protection needs to be added like an engine oil cooler or bigger radiator
or more fans in addition to the transmission cooler.
He also says that aftermarket water, oil and transmission fluid temperature
gauges (each installed in the correct location) that you trust are absolutely
required - he does NOT trust most factory gauges or digital readouts.

Hope that this helps.

Jim
