Buy the B+M 70264 kit. It has everything you need.

put mine in front of the radiator... but also used and made some brackets that keeps it off of the radiator... less heat will get to the tranny cooler if you do that...

You tap into the top line as its the return line. The B+M kit has the fittings to do this.
