Nah trans cooler in front of rad is fine. At least on my turbo setup. The cooler itself is only about 90 degrees i'd say. Is your clutch fan working? When the you switch the motor off while warm, the fan should stop instantly, if it slowly comes to a stop, as in freewheeling its time for a new clutch.
