I finally got around to installing my aux oil cooler. Used a Mocal thermostatic sandwich plate and Derale fan/cooler. Aeroquip blue hose with -8AN push on ends connected it up. Hose runs next to valve cover and zip ties to the wire bales (should make valve adjustments interesting). I removed the heater J tube on the passenger side to route the cooler lines. Since that J tube was just capped anyway, I just removed the J tube and put the cap where the J tube normall attaches to the heat exchangers. So there is no change to the heating system.

I need it when I'm going down the freeway at 90mph or whatever.  At higher speeds, there is lots of turbulence and fresh air gets mixed with exhaust air etc.

Demick,

My engine exhibits warmer than desired temps on the highway also. Around town it's fine. I will be most interested in your results. I'm planning on a similar setup later this spring.

That cooler looks just like an Atomic-Cool from Performance. Was it around 180 bucks?

Keep us posted on your temp findings.
