I've got a question though, I've got a 4 core radiator and I'll be using a 16" fan wired to a 180 degree temp switch.

Running an external tranny cooler. Should I place it infront of the radiator where it may benefit from the fan pulling air or place the tranny cooler off to one side where it will get only 'ram air' thru the grille?

Also, my 16" cooling fan has a probe for putting into rad fin but also a water inlet plug. Is there one better over the other?
