Default Oil/ Tranny Cooler? Which One??

Okey I know I need an oil and tranny cooler for my car... but is there a specific one? I found the B&M tranny cooler, but I don't understand the BTU part. Also how many rows for the oil cooler I've seen them go from 7-19?

by rows do you mean how many times the pipe inside the radiator fin part wind around? if so, the more the better because its more surface area to cool the liquid (oil) going through the pipe.

as for BTU, thats british thermal units, which measures the heating or cooling power of usually a AC unit or heater. i guess the higher the better too...i looked on B&M's site and saw nothing about fins or BTUs though.
