For a street car I don't see that an oil cooler makes any sense. Extra capacity (added cost at every oil change), increased failure points, and little if any benefit. The temperature of the oil, contained in the pan, does little to nothing to affect the coolant temperature which is much more dynamic. External oil coolers are for track cars that operate at sustained high RPM's, and perhaps for tow vehicles pushing the limits on tow capacity. Other than that they are a liability.
Concentrate on getting the coolant flow right and controlling the air flow through the radiator and you'll solve your problem.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
