Rob, Curt is correct. On the street my biggest problem is getting the oil up to operating temps. I'm considering one of these to help: http://64.202.180.37/files/laminova.pdf
Should warm up the oil faster and keep the temps lower when under heavy loads or sustained high RPM's as in racing.

Otherwise I'd go with the Backdraft setup (with shroud) and install a oil thermostat.

This has nothing to do with looks! I just want to make sure the oil does not get crazy hot, mainly in the summer heat! I will definately not be tracking or racing the car.........except, of course, on the street sometimes! Gotta have some fun! If you guys think I will be OK with out it, that's good enough for me.

Once again, Grazie!!
