just get the adapter fittings  ( where there were hollow bolts at the
auto trans heat exchanger ) from Kennedy Engineered products for about
25 to $ 30 ....
then get a generic auto trans oil cooler from a FLAPS.....$ 70 or so ..
and the high temp oil hose to connect it all...
and some screen from a hardware store to make a stone guard ...
you'll be  under 200 bucks likely.
