Where do you have your oil cooler?

Wally,
Does your front mount oil cooler have a thermostat and a fanpack? How does it do at the stop light?

Never had a fan pack on any oil cooler. I did use a thermostat on all wet sumped (normal) engines, but now on the dry-sumped engine I haven't used any anymore (because race car )

Stop lights waiting were never a problem, not even longer periods waiting in line at an event or pit lane with a running engine. The big porsche fan keeps it cool enough then.

I have idled in several traffic jams, one for almost an hour (!) in summer heat when we traveled to one of the Bitburg events and even that wasn't a problem (I sweated though), but that was with engines that had alu cilinders, which stay so much cooler on the oil.
