If you want a 100% bolt-on cooler that's pretty much your only option. Otherwise start measuring to see how much room you have to work with and order a generic cooler in the size you need from Summit or Jegs. You can get away with regular rubber transmission line hose and worm drive screw clamps but you should look into getting some AN fittings for it instead (usually have to tig on the fitting to the cooler), blowing a tranny line sucks.

Personally I would probably just go for a generic with AN fittings which will add a little to the price tag but still probably be cheaper than the Stillen. If you don't have access to a tig welder then you either need to get a cooler that already has AN fittings or pay someone locally to weld them to the cooler.

You don't need a fan for a tranny cooler unless it's being installed in a fender or somewhere with no airflow.

You should also inspect your plugs, you shouldn't need colder plugs with just FBO, they probably won't be hot enough to keep from fouling.
