I also run a B&M 24k (copy cat, I guess). When you connect it, remove the radiator from the loop. That is, go straight from the transmission to the cooler, back to the transmission. When an external cooler is used, the radiator actually acts as a heater, versus a cooler.
I have a transmission temperature gauge, and it is almost always well below 200 degrees.

you can use it either way, i use to have it hooked up through the radiator, and now i have it straight to the cooler. I would say as far as cooling goes, there are arguements for both, but the temp range really shouldnt make a huge difference from either way according to what ive read on this forum from a few people who have temp gauges. but check this out, i guess i had a small leak in the radiator, and water got into the trans fluid, and caused slipping and other problems, so i might have to say it may be a little better and easier (install & $$ wise) to just run it straight to the trans cooler. its easier to run it that way, and if you ever get a leak in the radiator, you wont have to worry about water mixing with your tran fluid and ruining your clutches and such.
