I totally agree with you about an oil cooler keeping water temperatures down. I have two oil coolers on my Pantera. There is a Laminova liquid to oil cooler on the outlet of my radiator and an air oil cooler where the air conditioning condenser was in the rear of the car. The rear oil cooler fan is set to come on when the oil temperature reaches 150 degrees. All oil lines are -10 and there is a high volume Titan oil pump sitting inside of a ten quart baffled aluminum oil pan. This set up is most likely too much for a street driven Pantera, but I have noticed cooler oil temperatures when I track the car. On the trip back from Monterey this year the oil temperature never got above 210 degrees and that was driving in 110 degree heat.
