What would be my best solution for adding an oil cooler on the 2366 build I am starting? I've read about coolers that mount under the rear of the car and are cooled with a fan. Is this the right direction?

Put the cooler up front, and hope. The cast-iron 103s aren't known for running cool.

I have the same question. If someone could give me some more direction on this setup, I'd appreciate it. |
