So I rebuilt my 3.0 into a much higher hp 3.2, I think its pushing 280hp. Problem now is just spirited street driving it runs at 210f with it be 80f outside; I'm sure on the track it will run 230+. I am running an engine cooler and the factory GT style Setrab oil cooler. If I want to run more track how large of an oil cooler do I need? What have you guys done in the past?
Also I am only running a GT lower valance, not a GT bumper, the hole seems large enough, could the GT bumper make that big a difference? Attached thumbnail(s) |

I deleted the stock engine cooler and run a 20 row setrab cooler in the front with a fan pack. I was concerned about stop and go traffic so I feel the electric fan should help. It’s set to come on at 190. I also made sure the air exit was pretty generous. I have not ducted the cooler yet but right now I’m still sorting the car and have not put it through it paces in hot weather.
