A Unique Cooling question

Ok for those of you that know me know im running a 4eat with a Hayden 403 tranny cooler. Last night i also installed a pair of Hella Supertones behind the grill.

Granted the supertones take away some of the wind turbulence from the radiator im just wondering how significant it'll be when teamed with the tranny cooler behind the grill too.

I thought about this and in theory the tranny cooler should actually be a tad bit cooler than the radiator, right!? Because the tube runs from the exiting portion of the radiator to tranny cooler, then back to the tranny line.

So in theory i should still be fine in regard to overheating, right?
Someone please shed some light on this issue because i don't want to risk running hot.

Raditor: O=4.5" diameter supertones

As long as the core of the tranny cooler is open enough to allow the air to pass through it, I would suspect you shouldn't have a problem. YMMV.
