Thanks on the build! I have oil going through the radiator as well. I was testing that cooler location, because I don't want to open up the entire front of the car. I can feel the drag now as it is. I have an oil cooler on the way that is literally the same size as the radiator! I am however very concerned about the oil pressure drop through it. We are also working on a radiator/heat exchanger that will dissipate 160btus. Should double our total cooling. Also considering splitting the intercooler, so I can direct the cleanest air possible to cooling. Power isn't the problem heat is, so it should get priority.

Was wondering, any brake heating issues? Doesn't look like any modding was done to direct airflow to them.

I haven't had any issues with brake heating. I did 45 min straight at Road Atlanta (It was January 40deg ambient). I've been running the set of XP8s for what seems like forever! With that said....Ducting is on my to do list. I'm still not sure of what the front end of the car is look like after all the oil cooling mods. Once that's sorted, ill duct them... if there's any air left!
Some more fab pics... Built a custom exhaust 304 stainless all TIG welded
