Is my oil cooler overkill for the street?

Making the blockoff plate isn't the worst thing in the world. Personally, I'd rather have to throw a block off plate on it in cooler temps than have to baby

Making the blockoff plate isn't the worst thing in the world. Personally, I'd rather have to throw a block off plate on it in cooler temps than have to baby the car all summer long without an oil cooler. If it really bothers you, take it off. Someone will buy it from you.

I still think there was some kind of snafu with the plate. The way I understand it, it would close back up again as it cools down, so you shouldn't have temps under 180 on the freeway. Again, this is all hypothetical to me since I live in a place where summer goes until October. Someone from a more normal climate may be able to help more.
