Look at the Fluidyne Oil coolers at HRP..... I think it was the sportsman model.... we had to modify to mount it to the chassis....but it will cool the best of the bunch..... very deep and lots of surface area..... we use it with a oil Thermostat and bring our oil up to 210*degrees quickly and maintain the temp.

Under racing conditions .... water needs to be at 190*-200*degrees and oil at 220*...... this is the ideal temp when running motor hard..... with a conventional cooling system....

Racing and no oil cooler is not recommended..... especially when you come up behind someone....
