oil cooler advice
Where to fit? 13 row Mocal jobby.
2 choices, in front of rad, will need some brackets fabricating, how much air flow over the rad will I lose with it in front of rad. Most tintops
have them here as do Cateringvans. I might have just answered my own question!
Behind rad nice neat jobby attached to top front chassis rail, how much air flow will I lose with it behind the rad.
Whaddya reckon? Any big disadvantages of behind?

what about flat in front of the rad with some aluminium ducting to divert some of the flow through the cooler, cold air to both rad and cooler.
Seen a couple of cars like this with oil coolers and intercoolers that work just fine. Another thing to consider is angling the rad forward or
backward and putting the oil cooler under or over the rad to form a > shape of radiators in the front of the car .... look at a WRC car and they
have this setup for all the coolers ... they also have a vent in the bonnet.
