Yes I do, as do loads of others, best done through a sandwich plate with a built in thermostat though, as mine is.
Mine was around 300bhp, but I'd have had one even if it was std power.

Tabetha........Guessing if you're using a Sandwich plate to run a Cooler then you'll have had to loose the coolant hose that runs from the back left-hade side of the Engine that runs to the oil warmer thing ?

If so what do you do with the hose routing ?

What cossie4i says, that's where it ends up anyway, if a track car where no heater is wanted(though I'd still have one-window demisting) you can simply block water pump outlet to heater and the head input from the cooler.
