Default A/C condensor

You can get one form an auto wrecker.
Clean it out and bolt it in.
Lots of cooling area.
You can install a pusher fan too.

I think that the better way to install the cooler IS using original too but in the firts place, I mean, conect the B&M after orginal, so, the B&M take cooler fluid from OEM cooler and just cool more with B&M and then goes to Tranny, but if do than backwards, the "cool" fluid may be warmed a little in radiator cooler, dont you think?

well the stock cooler is a restriction to begin with. I feel like a broken record, but the damn thing is TINY! LOL!

There is no real gain to running your stock cooler when you have an after market cooler. Its like installing a 4 foot chain link fence behind a 10 foot brick wall. Its not going to help any. When you install a small fan to your after market cooler its like setting land mines in front of that 10 foot brick wall. Nobody is getting past that! your trans will stay cooooooool....

sorry if my analogy sucked.

yes. The aftermarket cooler will be just fine on its own, and it might even work more efficiently.
