I've been extremely happy with my 25r Stillen cooler, I've never gone above 220 degrees pushing the car hard at the top of 2nd and 3rd with Triple's on my a$s. Warm up times are acceptable, but if it's cool out the car barely reaches 160 degrees even with the thermostatic plate.

The 72 row setrab is half the width, so the effective surface area is roughly the same as the normal series 6 34 row.

It works okay but I'm not convinced it is the perfect solution. The positioning blocks off a lot of airflow to the radiator and raises water temp. Oil flow rates with the -8AN lines are a little bit lower than they need to be so temps still run high on track.

Thanks for the great info. I thought about the core blocking air flow but figured most of it must pass right through and still provide cooling for the radiator.
