I swapped from a sixspeed to a 4l80 from jakes, I am still running my 6speed radiator, and a cooler in front of it,, My trans temps are low, My gauge shows around 160-180 depending, so that tells me my cooler is doing a good job. I wouldnt trust a stock radiator to take care of my High $ performance trans setup anyway. Hope this helps.

how big is you cooler ?
If i go to standalone Transmission cooler and stick whith the manual radiator how big needs the cooler to be.
should i go whith two one big and one small
What about lines, : use the stock´s or get bigger better flowing lines , what´s recomended
i have 3800 stall and non lock up converter
thanks
