It's an engine oil cooler. I'll plumb it from the oil pump to the cooler than through the oil filter and through the engine. I'll have a seperate port for the accumulator. The coolant t stat will control the oil temperature. While this may be marginal for all out road racing, I don't plan to run anything but 15-30 minute heats with this car. I'll have 13qts of oil, dual pass, and aluminum block. If I get that damn serious about road racing, I need to build a new car. This should do just fine for what I intend with the space I have.
