390 tranny radiator

is this the right hookup for lines from tranny to radiator and intercooler for my automatic c6 and the vaccuum line to the engine? https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...=57092&width=2

it looks right but for good measure the cooler needs to be hooked up before entering the radiator as mention in another post to maintain the right temp

I'm no expert but it seems to me the external cooler should be mounted or in line after the radiator. This would give your fluid one last cool blast before heading to the trans. If you cool the fliud before the radiator, you could actually be bringing the temp up before sending it to the trans.

Just a few $.01's --Mike
