In my quest for the 'perfect' oil cooler setup for my Westfalia turbodiesel,
I had a brainstorm: The best location for the cooler is in front of the
radiator, right? Since my Westy doesn't have AC, I could add an AC condenser
and use it as an oil cooler. Anyone have experience or know of someone who
has done this? Negatives? Think it will work OK? The other option, that I am
ready to pursue, is to mount the Mazda RX-7 cooler that I have, behind the
engine where the muffler used to reside. (No muffler there now) I'm not
totally sure that is a good location as far as airflow. Your thoughts?
Thanks!
