Default Another oil cooler question.

Doing a little research on the oil cooler issue and figuring out how to proceed. Have a few questions, if anybody has any suggestions...

1. Everybody is putting the cooler in front of the radiator, but I'm a little concerned about raising coolant temps - especially with the large coolers people are using. And I think they're putting them at the radiator outlet, where the cool coolant is (correct me if I'm wrong). Has anybody seen their coolant temps go up?

2. I was thinking about going behind the radiator to avoid the problem, avoid the damper issue, and avoid taking off the bumper. Does anybody know if there's an area to mount to back there?

3. Do anybody know if there's a good place to mount a remote oil filter, while I'm at it, to avoid having to crawl under?

4. I understand there's a bottom cover, blocking off access to the oil filter. I like the cover, to keep things clean. However, given the heat problems, has anybody taken off the cover to see if that improves the heat situation?

Yo.
