FTRA and oil cooler

I just installed a Fuddle 3400 stall and need to mount an oil cooler. My car has a Fast Toy's Ram Air. Has anyone had any experience with this. Where did you mount it?.
Thanks

Yeah I believe that's what he meant trans oil cooler. Mines is mounted behind the plastic air dam under the car.

A bit lengthly to explain which is why I'll take the pics. Like the saying goes, a picture speaks a thousand words.
