Nope!! I need something to read!!! To darn quiet on here lately!!

Think you'll have a hard time finding an oil cooler unit with inlets and
outlets large enough for your coolant hoses.

Subject: Coolers

Anybody tired of hearing from me yet? Well, here's my next question for

the

learned members of the list. Is there any reason why I couldn't use an

oil

cooler or transmission fluid cooler for engine coolant? The reason I ask

is

that if any of the above could be used it greatly widens my options for
using something off-the-shelf for cooling when I get to that stage.

A (general rule of thumb) is that you need 1 sq. inch of radiator area for
every cu. inch of engine. NOT always true. You can have a smaller area IF you
have more rows in you're radiator with at least the same amount of volume as
a stock radiator. More is better even if it's just a pint. And GOOD intake
and exit air, that can be tricky sometimes. <A HREF="http://www.indussys.com/customer/motora ... motorad</A> Also check out the link
for a thermostat that's safe to fly with.

Some of the Subaru guys are using automotive air conditioning evaporators.
I think with your big engine you're going to need a lot more cooling than
that. Maybe you should look into what Orenda uses for their engines.
