oil cooler temp Options

[SirAndy]

anyone ever bothered to measure the running temp of a front-oilcooler?
does it even get hot enough to use it as a heater "replacement"?
brad said that he doesn't like the front-coolers that route the air upwards
with an exit through the trunk lid because you get all the hot air in the car
when the top is off.
question is, does it really get that hot?
if yes, i could route the air from the front cooler under the hood right into
the inside to get some heat.

what'ya'think?

good points guys,
the air flow needs to be as smooth as possible, otherwise the hot air will
accumulate backwards and decrease the effectiveness of the oil-cooler.

and i certainly don't want some 8 quarts of oil in my face either.

so, what if (i'm still thinking, can you tell?):

i only need the maximum cooling on the racetrack, so what if
i have the front cooler with a nice, smooth dam going up and exit through
the front hud (perfect cooling), but have the dam with a built in flap
that i can move up to close the upward exit and route the air inside the
car. that way i get the heating when i need it and the cooling when i need it.

mhmmmm ...
