actually that is backwards. it should go in the top of radiator, out the bottom, and then through the aftermarket cooler. the radiator tank is hotter than the air in front of it. this way the rad. takes away some heat and then the cooler takes the rest.

I would get a stacked plate design, not the tube and fin type.
