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? |

The cooler gets plenty hot. The thermostat on my car opens at 185f. I can't hold my hand on the hot side when it's been open for a while, but I can on the cool side....not a very scientific method, but it's all I gots.
I vent my front trunk thusly. I've built a widget to replace the spare tire cover but haven't installed it yet. |
