722.6 cooling!

I am using a brand new radiator/atf cooler but it won't keep the transmission fluid temp down enough so I was thinking...
My radiator and atf cooler helps the fluid to reach its operating temp faster so I guess that's good but what if I do this?
Transmission----->radiator cooler--------->air to atf cooler with fan--------->back to transmission.
Or should I skip the radiator cooler?
The air to atf cooler I've found is a 30row cooler with a fan.
Edit: when crusing I have no temp issues at all but when I push it for long periods I the temp rises and during burnouts the temp climbs very fast. That's what I'm trying to cure.

(07-13-2016, 02:06 PM)-Mackan- Do you use a thermostat along with your air to atf cooler?
ATF is not like lube oil and so the cooler the better. but I am going to fit a temp switch into a hydraulic fitting adapter just so the fan doesn't come on immediately with ignition because othersise starter/glowplugs/fan drawing current might cause starting problems in cold winter?
I got 9" SPAL fan from Triumph motorbike in Mocal 30-row with no ATF heat probs.
