    Gotcha! I guess the correct way is to connect the lines to something to help shed heat!

    I've seen a couple folks make a couple circles with copper tubing and connect it to the transmission. It worked and those rides went decades without failure!

    Like Tech mentioned earlier, one of the problems with an automatic is that you don't want to over cool the fluid. It's designed to operate warm to hot, just not too hot. External coolers are good for applications where you're generating a lot of "extra" heat, like towing, but just throwing one on can result in the tranny running too cool in cold climate driving. Sounds like you've got your's pretty well figured out, but it would still be interesting to know what Griffin says about your connections, just for grins....
