Oil Cooler
Thinking of getting an oil cooler for my 4AGE 20v engine.
Can anyone recommend what size I should be looking for?
Anyone have a spare they want rid of?

The 1600 first series engine came with a bypass cooler approximately 6"X8"X1", strange arrangement, bypass oil was fed to the cooler
than back to the oil pan.

I've got a Silvertop 4AGE 20v so not sure if that has the bypass or not. I assume not.
I've a few overheating issues and thought that an oil cooler was worth a try especially as it's going on a few more trackdays.
I don't have an oil temperature gauge so say how hot that is getting.

I have a 16v 4A-GE and have added an oil cooler for the same reasons you give.
I bought a take off plate that has a thermostat so that the oil only passes to the cooler at about 80degrees.
