I've never seen an ATF warmer... always coolers, where the lines are put into a secondary radiator that is held to or near the radiator, or a part of the radiator...

Those were always used to keep the ATF cooler though, since the engine's coolant doesn't usually go much over 200* (sarcasm) I believe the average thermostat is 190*, correct?
