We run one on the Challenger since the 904 is small and light with all aluminum parts. I don't need it at the races (except when I went a few rounds in a row at some shortened races) but when we are testing the Challenger can run 5+ passes in a row, and the trans will get to 200+. The Super F Synthetic fluid over Conventional Type F gets us that far as with regular non synthetic it was 200 after 3 passes. I have the cooler mounted under the car, facing the ground and it has a fan on it. Its the Derale "atomic" cool that we stock.
I don't have a cooler in the COPO since we can't cool the engine and blower off fast enough to worry about it, and its a T400 with more capacity.
You can be bybassed in the pump and just plug holes as mentioned or loop the lines. I keep a loop on the COPO so I can monitor cooler pressure.
