Ford Racing will offer a bunch of GT350R(-C) parts I'm sure, like the coolers for example as they did with the Boss.
From the official owner's supplement for the GT350:

Definitely implies they can be added after the fact.

The only thing I might want from tech pack is the radio, I'm thinking it will be much cheaper to source one out of a wrecked Mustang, cheaper too.
I was actually surprised how few track pack cars were ordered, according to the survey in the sticky threads.
There was some talk that the trans cooler might use a trans with different case, dunno? Also the drive for the trans pump may be something added internally, such as inside the tail shaft housing running off the output shaft. So not impossible, but maybe not bolt on, dunno?

No way would they source a different transmission just for a cooler. It has a couple of holes for the cooler (it's just another small radiator) and they're just plugged on the base car.

Don't forget about those of us who cheaped out and went base. I plan on adding the track pack spoiler for sure. If I fall in love with tracking this thing I will look at adding coolers. On a side note, if some of these aftermarket head unit/screen upgrades pan out I'm in on those also.

The diff has an external pump, don't think the trans does, so something inside is likely driving the fluid, I don't think that would be present unless there was an external cooler ordered.

The pump for the transmission oil cooler is inside the transmission. If you don't get the track pack for the transmission oil cooler, you're screwed.

The transmission cooler pump is mechanically driven off the input shaft built into the bellhousing. The transmission case is physically different, and not likely retrofittable to a non-track package transmission. Photos are posted somewhere here, will try to find them later.
I have a hunch that if you do opt for the "R" rear wing...you'll lose your rear view Camera.. Unless you can somehow relocate it into the decklid.
