I have oil and ps coolers. I love them, but i would pony up the extra for good ones. Especialy the engin oil, if it doesnt have good hoses and conections(IE regular hose clamps) you could blow your motor. I have never used the amsoil in ps systems, but for your aplication it may be just what you need. Just keep in mind the ford boxes are ment for atf, they can leak if the clear ps fluid is used.
The coolers by them selves are a good start, mine dropped my engine temp 20 degrees. They can go even farther with 10" electric fans on them (thats whats on my tranny coolers).
A shroud is a good start too, but an electric aux fan is nice too. I have a 17" elctric fan, and a fixed blade fan. I would also recomend a fan guard.
Something else to consider is the thermistat you use, I have a 160 in mine(so I can get some heat in the winter) and I rarely go over 200. Thats with a howe radiator. Your coolent mixture can also make some diffrence. I run a 65/35 mix in mine(wont freeze where I live) but helps keep it cool. Water wetter is also good.
