themo fan on the cooler, when the car triggers the brake, the relay actvates and cools the cooler when car is slowing/stopped, an even better way will be as delayed switch off around 3 secs, to stop unecessary swtiching while still moving.....this trick works on 10 sec cars...

IM currently looking at fitting a thermo to my trans cooler as well... sounds like a good idea.

Make sure the cooler is bolted to the radiator itself, so air is forced to travel through it. Made a big difference for me.
Does your stally have a lockup clutch still?
My built auto gets toasty hot fairly quickly with the stallie, you can't be up it all the time if you want the auto to last.
Better off getting a manual if you like to drive it hard round town ;)
