Will ask Jimbo
if you are using mobil 1 oil for example, that is usually good for around 140°C and 150 very max...
If you are wanting to change the standard modine, then a sandwich plate is required. This will take the oil away to another radiater mounted in or around front bumper (the air passing through it will cool it) and then it gets returned to the engine. Some of these sandwich plates have thermostats in or you can get them in the lines to, think auto are quite good for that sort of thing.
http://www.thinkauto.com/ Ref pipe sizes probably aeroquip -10 or -12, ref size cooler not sure really, may depend of use of car, i.e. if a track car or road with occasional spirited drives etc, but at a guess think auto will help you out.
Thanks bud, will have a look on the Think site
