I've got both the trans piece as well as xcase and maybe I just got lucky but neither of mine leak.

No trans cooler here either but the main trickery behind this piece is the way it deflects oil onto 4th gear so its constantly getting fresh oil thrown on it which helps to keep it cool. Adding a trans cooler on top of that would only help even more.

Thanks yeah i was wondering specifically how to route my plumbing,it seems id want to feed my pump from the drain plug but I'm not sure if i want to pull fluid from the TRE plate too and return to the TRE plate and the fill hole on the tranny,just seems like plumbing overkill although i personally think the tranny cooler is a must on a track car

The cooling plate has an in and an out port, they're 3/8 NPT. You can plumb both of your cooler lines to it.
