I am thinking about removing the oil lines going to the radiator and
replacing them with a stand alone engine oil cooler such as the summit six
pass oil cooler PRM-12315(4"H X 101/2"W X 18"L for $149.95. It comes with a
900 CFM fan and will reduce the temperature up to 95 degrees F. Am thinking
about the same thing for the tranny. Think it would solve several problems,
fire danger if the lines burst, and better cooling for the tranny and engine.
Has anyone gone this route yet and if so what is your experience?
