The plan was to simply assist with the engine cooling process via the separate oil cooler.. who knew how multifaceted it was.
Mike.. look forward to a schematic if it can be found or scratched out easy enough.
Will test oil pressure pre and post cooler installation as per Gary's advice in the first instance and have the Improved Performance thermostatic unit fitted on the LS3 block.
Will.. thanks for the heads up.. I understand the thermostatic unit with min 10% flow will manage start up pressure, thermal shock and bypass requirements... as long as the pump can keep up with the resistance to flow for the entire system with the cooler in place.
The coil I have is 300PSI rated.. cost 3x the price of your ebay 'equivalent', but there is a good reason..
PS Bob.. it does look cool.. !!!
