Automatic Trans Filter Kit Standard

The PERMA-COOL Automatic Transmission Filter Kit Standard (Part Number 10678) is a complete remote transmission filter system designed to extend ATF life and protect your transmission from thermal degradation and contaminant accumulation. This universal-fit kit provides everything needed for installation: a professional-grade filter element, remote filter mount, hose assemblies, fittings, and mounting hardware—eliminating the guesswork and trip charges associated with piecing together components from multiple vendors.

Remote transmission filtration systems work by circulating automatic transmission fluid through a secondary filter mounted away from engine heat, allowing cooler, cleaner fluid to return to the transmission. This approach reduces operating temperature—critical for maintaining viscosity stability and friction modifier performance—while capturing ferrous wear debris and oxidation byproducts before they circulate back through clutch packs and valve bodies. The PERMA-COOL standard kit is engineered for universal fitment, meaning the hose routing, fitting sizes, and mount plate accommodate most transmission configurations without transmission-specific engineering.

This kit suits builders and owners running modified transmissions under elevated load—towing vehicles, performance applications, or vehicles operating in sustained high-ambient-temperature climates. Remote filtration is particularly valuable in sport-shifted or high-stall-speed applications where conventional pan-mounted filters may be overwhelmed. At 3.02 lbs and compact dimensions (5.3 × 4.95 × 9.05 inches), the system is straightforward to package in engine bays with space constraints, and the included hardware supports clean, professional installation without fabrication.

PERMA-COOL is recognized in the transmission cooling and filtration market for systems that prioritize durability and thermal management consistency. The standard kit sits at the core of their transmission filtration lineup, offering the essential components without oversized cooling capacity, making it ideal for street cars and moderate-duty builds that benefit from fluid cleanliness and temperature control without the weight and complexity of full auxiliary cooling loops.
