Just curious if this system is sufficient for cooling. Planning to mount this system to the front with hard aluminum lines to the rear. Will this do the job? I have a 76 fuel injected 2.0.

my 75 2.0 d-jet was running too hot 230+ when pushing hard up the mountain passes a few years ago at Okteenerfest, so when I had the car up to Chris at Tangerine Racing he installed a square shaped aux oil cooler back up under the rear trunk and it does a super job. Last year up in Helen Georgia I didn't go over 220 with that set up. I do have a fan on it that kicks on if temp goes over 220 and that had worked great. I think the combo of the extra oil volume with the cooler keeps the temps down to where the should be, but - also consider head temps, that matters even more regarding valve seats etc.
