thinking about taking the std oil cooler off adn then joining the 2 houses together anyone else done this or will it make my oil to hot?
ive been told it not actually a oil cooler
but an oil warmer
as the water in teh engine will get hotter before the oil does and it helps the oil warm up quicker either way i dont know
but supose its best left on for reasons

If it is for a track car I would remove it and fit a proper air -> oil cooler and do a proper job of removing the coolant hoses. Then you have one less thing to go pop!
