Now that my engine is back together with higher compression I need to consider some additional cooling.

In 80-90 degrees ambient temps, at 3800rpm highway, it runs 200-210-215. So next summer in mid to high 90's, it's going to need some help.

I really don't want to install a cooler up front. But are there any alternatives? Rear fender well? Rear trunk with cutout? Engine bay?

Any specifics or brand models would be most helpful. Pics?

I'm considering this one for mine. Mounted under the rear trunk. I don't want to plumb to the front either.
