Hey Dudes,

How have you solved you oil temp issues? Just a sandwich plate and an cooler, or is there a better setup with thermostat?

Mount a water cooler matrix in the front and have the water supply for the oil cooler run through. Makes a difference of 5 degrees under heavy load and has the advantage of being effective when the fan hits in.
