YES
I have heard mention of a bypass valve, yet the kit makes no mention of it.
There is a bypass valve in the ATF filter (as mentioned by Earl), there's also an different add-on temp sensitive bypass that prevents flow thru the add-on cooler until the ATF gets to XXX degrees, but I don't know a source to buy one of these.
2. When running the add-on B&M cooler, should it be placed in series before or after the stock cooler?

After. Make sure the filter is before either cooler to prevent blockage. There has been some discussion of thermodynamic principles that suggest putting air cooled cooler first, but I don't want to think about it...most add-on cooler OEMs recommend after the factory cooler...don't know why.
These are opinions only as warned about above...just trying to help with consensus (like in this group.... I can dream can't I).
