cure for high oil temps?

(1/3) > >>

north pole racer:
what oil cooler/oiling system(filter/plumbing) is best for lower oil temps? im running 34 coupe,1250 sealed, 70-85 degree air temp,on paved 1/4 mi flat track, synth oil(10-30) and the big square cooler plumbed thru the pan fittings. spin on filter on back of eng. oil gauge after 25 lap main is pegged. doesnt seem quite right to me.

Setrab and Fluidyne seem to be the norm for coolers.
Lots to be said for the top end oilers also.

Big square oil cooler blocks all of the air coming in through the grill.
It's an air cooled engine
Setrab 920 is the way to go in my, and Setrab's, opinion

north pole racer:
i also have a VMS top end oiler. so would you plumb the 920 thru the pan fittings like my current set up or would plumbing it thru the filter side get better results? or does it not matter?

knoxracing:
There has been alot said on the subject, my system is similar to Hanks. (cheaper)
Fluidyne cooler, 2 pass-    $250.00
Remote filter adpater -      $125.00
Fan                                 -      $  75.00
Remote puck                        $110.00
Lightweight kevlar lines
and alu. fittings                   $175.00

Yes it is pricey to plumb a car, but the motor is $5000.00 +
