Default Ford C4 Transmission cooler?

Just wondering if most people are running a transmission cooler on a C4 or are they looping the front to the back cooler lines?

Mine is looped together. All most 400 runs on this one, and I am not kind to it, lots of t-n-t days that I make 12 to 13 runs in five hours. I change fluid about 3 times during the season. This is a 5.0 stocker.

Is that with a deep aluminum pan or stock steel?

Cast alum deep pan with a differant filter pick up and run less fluid in it, a quart low on the dipstick. This is to keep fluid away from rotating parts and slowing them down. if that makes sense to you.
