[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 6462717, member: 11681"] Many race cars and several street/open track cars have shown good oil cooling results by mounting the oil cooler in the driver's side fender w/ a Spal fan. The debris thrown by the tire will be directed at the rear of the fender liner, so the location at the front has proved effective. Porsche race cars have also used that location successfully for many years. In this configuration you will also minimize weight(shorter lines) and restrictions in air flow to the rad. You also would not be dumping hot air in front of the rad. The fender wells are a negative air pressure area that lends itself well to this particular application. Also depending on how you mount your fabbed up brackets, you may be able to help out the front center of gravity slightly if you mount it as low as possible. Yes, you would cut a hole in the splash shield.:beer: [/QUOTE]
