I have an AOD im going to be putting in my car. It has a shift kit and a converter. What would be a good tranny cooler for the car?

I have the B&M. It was a nice easy install. Some people say that mounting in front of your condensor makes your radiator and condensor work alot harder, but in the B&M instructions it showed that as the only place for it to be 100% effective I mounted mine there last summer and the car ran the same temp and the air was still cold. I have mine plumped through the stock cooler into the b&m and back to the tranny.

I have a B&M and since I removed the fogs on my GT I mounted behind the passenger foglight opening so it gets plenty of air. The one I have comes with a fan activated by a temp switch. I have only had the fan come on once so I know it is getting plenty of air flow

I have a dual oil cooler that I actually got from a Crown Vic. Police package. I just tapped into the tranny cooler lines near the radiator and the other for the power steering. I also put it in front of the radiator. No problems with temp and A/C, but I'm sure it's not running as efficiant as it could. I have no monitor for temp for the tranny, but I'm sure that it definately helps.
