Is this a good replacement power steering cooler?

Our's bought the farm so I need a replacement.
The local Chrysler dealer wants $211.00 for a stock replacement!
I think not!
I am looking at this one from Jegs:

Or this one,but it might be a little too big!:

For 1/10th the cost of what the dealer wants - um, yeah!

Derale is a strong name so doesn't seem like you could go wrong. And I wonder if there is any harm with going with the bigger cooler. Could it keep the fluid too cool, especially in the winter? (Ya know, that wonderful start-up squeal we get in the winter might turn into a full symphony...)

Tell us which one you go with for future reference!

I am going for the larger one with the Dash 6 fittings.
Seeing that I have an abundance of Aeroquip hoses
and fittings left over from my rally Mini I figure that
I may as well use it on the Heep!
Also, I can always fab up an insulated cover, to cover
part or all of the cooler during the "cold" months so that
The power steering fluid can warm up to operating temperature.
