what kind of oil temps do you see?
With the old factory oil cooler, and another static unit installed in the factory intercooler location, I was around 240 degrees on a hot day running hard, but not in track conditions. This was just having fun around 18psi.

Seeing this, the car was not track reliable. We pulled the head when we got exhaust pressure into my coolant, and found the lean issues at number 4.

I'm hoping to see 220 degree max oil temps with the new setup.

The radiator is from Ron Davis using their new flex material. The larger oil cooler has a thermostat driven fan, and the smaller one is static like the factory unit. We are using the factory ducting. The larger oil cooler with the fan has much cooling capacity, and the fan is mounted in the back, and sucks through like a typical radiator.
