Has anyone installed an oil cooler in the battery tray/hell hole area?? I was looking at this area and thinking that if the battery is relocated this spot could be used for an oil cooler/fan combo with the hot air being spent into the passenger side wheel well. Keeps the oil lines close and keeps both trunks unaltered (except for relocated battery!). I don't know how much ambient flow would occur with this installation, but a fan(s) should be able to push enough air??

Here's a really quick and really bad photoshop pic of what I mean:




My apologies to whomever I stole the hell hole pic from....it's not easy being green (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
