Question Hot Cooler Line Top Or Bottom

I have a 2000 camaro SS. I Just built a LS2 402 for it. Just got it in. Now I am putting a built 4l60E in and a Yank SS4000 conveter in. I am not going to use stock trans cooler lines. Will use -6 line and a B&M Hi-Teck cooler with stock cooler in radiator. I know that the bottom port in trans is hot oil to cooler. I want this line to go to stock radiator cooler first then to B&M then back to trans. What side of radiator would you put this hot line top or bottom of the stock radiator? What part of stock radiator is cooler top or bottom? I want hot oil to go to cooler part of radiator first.I think the way it was stock the hot line went to bottom of radiator. What do you guys think? Thanks

I believe the fluid goes in the bottom rad line and out the top!

Yes, the top line is the INLET to the cooler, the bottom is the OUTLET of the cooler. Same with the transmission side.
