[QUOTE="haskett, post: 10598689, member: 3483"] Several things.... 1. Putting the oil cooler in the engine compartment doesn't seem like a good idea. All of the heat that you extract from the oil is getting dumped back into the engine bay, much of which will be reabsorbed.... 2. I'm no expert on air bubbles in the oil system, but I've taken apart my external oil parts enough to know that air gets into your system just by it sitting. My oil lines never empty enough oil when I disconnect them. 3. I don't have track time on my new system YET, but can tell you that with the largest Mocal cooler possible in the inner fender without tilting the cooler, my oil temps leaving the engine have yet to reach 200 degrees, which is the recommended min temp. So I second Jimmy's advice. Be careful not to go too large on the cooler, put a good gauge on the oil temp, and do what yo have to in order for the temps to be in range of effective oiling. [/QUOTE]
