260 oil temp with 34 row cooler.... help!

SS_Firehawk · 04-16-2020, 05:34 PM

I've been running a 72 row since 2011. It has the lowest pressure drop due to high row count and short rows. Running 10 AN fittings with high flow 90 degree bends will help. You can mount the oil cooler directly in line with air flow. I still reached 250+ temps, but the car never pulled power during 30 minute sessions. Another option is Improved Racing. They have extremely efficient oil coolers that hold more oil and are multipass. They also make amazing sandwich plates, adapters, and remote filter plates.

I have the Z1 34 row cooler on mine. I helped JL install his BP turbo. He has the FI 34 row cooler. One thing I noticed. The FI uses AN -8 fittings and hose. My Z1 uses AN -10 fittings and hose. The Z1 stuff is bigger, so more flow.
