Do you have a tranny cooler?
#2
well i still dont have an sc yet but i have worked on my fair share of cars, but the reality of it is that YES an auxilery transmission cooler will greatly help the transmissions life and power handling.just about every automatic transmission comes with one stock, using the radiator for cooling to keep the fluid temps inside the transmission down. if you do a quick search on supra forums there are tons of threads about this and they will even point out a few coolers that many people use.

Your method should work fine. Many of us who have replaced the stock radiator go this route.
I would go with a cooler with a fan if possible. A temp gauge would also give you an idea of how hot/cool your running. I bet most people would be surprised at what temps are possible.
