Default Trans cooler location

5.3l turck motor with a th350 trans, stock stall, 2.75 rear gears, 2500lbs fully loaded(i'm guessing?)
cooler is a summit SUM-G4962A, 10"x14"x.75"

I would like to mount the cooler under the car along side the driveshaft (not too close) I realize the cooler is meant to go infront of the radiator, but with limited room it would make things alot easier to put in under neith.

So will there be enough airflow to keep the trans cool? I dont have a trans temp gauge

Should I buy another cooler and run one on either side of driveshaft?

any help/suggestions would be great!!

pure street car

click on my name and there is link to my "homepage"

all old pics.
as of a month ago is was completed and on the road, but man the 283 was not powerful enough for me. I figure the 5.3 should have alittle more kick, I did not realize how big the genIII is, alot wider then the genI.
