Fun reading the :drama:

I don't believe the stock cooler is garbage because it works great on the street for short bursts of spirited driving (I've had with and without) but of course it's not up to track duty. If you treat the streets like a track, it's not going to cut it there, either. But multiple 3rd gear pulls to redline on a hot summer day, the benefit of the stock cooler will be apparent in short order.

Is the oil warm-up benefit of the stock cooler worth retaining with an aftermarket track-capable oil cooler?

Would an ideal dual-duty setup retain the stock cooler, and use a removable block-off-plate for the oil to air cooler for track days?

The OEM one works for daily driving and some drag racing runs. I've never seen temps above 220 getting stuck in traffic or during 1hr plus drives in 80-90* weather. I can't see it performing better than a 24 row.

I would guess coupling it with a much smaller 18row and csf triple pass rad would yield best results without the headache of having to remove the oem and you wouldnt be blocking as much radiator surface area compared to a much larger oil cooler .
