Default Do I need a Transcooler fan for my setup?

here is the B&M transmission cooler I got. http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

basically a 1/4 of the trans cooler will NOT be blocked by the intercooler. The remaining 3/4 of the transcooler is behind the intercooler. Im running a Yank 3000 stall, 3.23s. The car is mainly a street car. So will this transmission cooler be ok or should I get a fan for it also?

This is what I have on mine. It would be good to have a fan on there if you need it.

How much or how fast does it lower the temps, cruising & at idle? Is yours wired with a thermostat? I'm getting a fan very soon & will just wire it directly to a switch.

Already have my cooler mounted, just curious to how he has the fan mounted. But mostly want to know how much the 6" fan, that claims 1800cfm and only draws 2.1 amps, helps. I need a fan but not one that doesn't work.
