The circumstances when the bottom end/oil gets over heated are situations when plenty of airflow is available *somewhere* on the vehicle. I've mounted coolers in front of the transmission, in the airspin behind the rear wheel (with a rock guard) and behind the front grill (current Vanagon). The one place you DON'T want to mount the cooler (on any air cooled VW) is anywhere in the incoming airstream for the motor. You run the risk of cooking the heads in order to cool your oil.
