Quote: What kind of oil cooler is being run on the truck? I have a partial filled block that I want to add an oil cooler to. Weren't there a few more cars in your group?

He probably should have went a bit larger, he still runs into a problem on hot days, or extended runs. 210 to 220 is normal temp, once it starts above 225 to 230, a noticeable drop in oil pressure starts. In the picture below, those are the feed lines, the cooler sits inside the cross member.
In 2006 we took a filled 493 with no oil cooler, and no oil temp guage, and pressure drop would begin about 4 miles into the drive! So this was much better.
