Finally get to pretend I am one of the cool kids - Holley kit swap

-
I had been thinking this, as i have a 300c srt engine it has the oil cooler. Was thinking if i run the earls remote cooler i could fit this in the remote area........having said that i am trying to tidy the bay up lol. One of my friends runs a performance shop and said the oil coolers are a good bit of kit and defiantly worth it

That would be the oil cooler that plumbs into the radiator hose and uses coolant to maintain a consistent temp. The one @Dantra has is like the Hellcat setup where the cooler is completely separate and plumbs to an external cooler that uses ambient air. They put the oil cooler like the 300 SRT one on the 6.4's and HD 5.7's in the trucks so they must be worth something, but the setup off the TRX is the ultimate and probably more like what you friend is talking about.

That said, I have one of the coolant type oil coolers and have wondered if I could fit it up to my 90 degree adapter but haven't messed with it. Kind of doubt it will fit though.

OOooo ill have to have a look. I like to mess about with that kind of stuff. On my ute i used a standard oil cooler solid line type to cool the power steering oil. As if doing track work the commodore tends to cook the oil....... not that it ever seen a track lol.
 
The coolant type oil coolers are pretty common. Vipers use them and I believe the same exact cooler is used on GT40s and other cars. They are nice and small, so pretty easy to mount and you don't have to worry about airflow with them. Maybe not as much cooling potential as an air type, but if it puts up with what Vipers can put out, I'm inclined to believe it's fine. Granted the Viper also has ~11 quarts of oil to dump heat into, so it may not need the same kind of cooling.
