The transmission cooler I=E2=80=99m looking to use is a "stacked =
plate=E2=80=9D design, and has a pressure rating of 200 PSI.  It says it =
has a 29,200 BTU rating:

I do plan to put a small box fan to blow through it as well.

Here are some pictures, but these all seem to be between the compressor =
and tank, mine will be mounted on the wall after the tank.
