Jim Page discovered many years ago the need for a good fan on an external oil cooler.

This is his setup:

I saw this set up in person many years ago at Page Auto, when I visited Green Bay. Pretty impressive.

No, mine is the factory GTS oil cooler with no fans. The temp sender is in the oil pan drain plug. I've thought about adding or moving the cooler to the wheel well and adding a fan, but haven't gotten that far. Looking at other options and right now what Greg Brown is developing seems the easiest/best route for me.
