If you decide to use a stand alone oil cooler, be aware that using one will not keep the trans at a constant temperature as well as one that is inside the radiator. When it flows through your radiator it warms and cools the oil and keeps it at a constant temperature that is thermostatically controlled. When using an axillary trans cooler it is best to hook it to the pressure side of the trans so it first goes through the axillary cooler then through the radiator so it will not run too cool or too hot. If your towing a heavy load or running a high stall convertor on the street running an axillary cooler in conjunction with your radiator cooler is a good idea. But if running a stock or close to stock convertor most likely a trans cooler is just a waste of time and money. Your transmission is designed to operate at the temperature that your radiator controls it at.
