Default Additional transmission cooler?????

I would like to add an additional transmission cooler to my 1968 turbo 400 car. Has anyone else done this? If so did you run it in line with the existing cooler or did you bypass it and just run the cooler by it's self? I was thinking with some of the 400-400 overheating problems that maybe taking the hot transmission fluid out of the radiator might help a little. I have a good size cooler but I'm not postive on how I would want to mount it or run the lines. If you have done this or have any pictures can you post what worked best for you.
Thanks

Bypass......plug the ports in your radiator. Run new lines from the tranny forward to in front of or below your rad. Mount the new cooler and dont forget to add extra fluid for the increased capacity.
