SO the tranny and engine do not share oil on the DOHSs like the SOHCs do?

Yes they do share the same oil. Just like the SOHC engines. However they have a wet sump like the matic.

Just a word of caution: transmission coolers are NOT the same as oil coolers... The channels are different sizes, with transmission coolers having smaller channels, as the transmission fluid is thinner, less viscous. I would advise against using a transmission cooler for engine oil. Check out the vendor sites for companies who sell such things -- you will see that they market different coolers for the two applications.

Cheers!
