What is overheating? The coolant or the oil. This will do nothing to
lower the water temp and the effect on oil temp will not be that great
as you will still be using hot water to cool the oil. High loads and
speeds will still drive the oil temp higher than the coolant temp.

Greetings Listees!

I'm thinking about ways to keep the toaster-oven-on-wheels from
overheating. Is the cooler from Dieselgeek, a good option? How much work
is this to install? Is this worth the money?

Any insight is appreciated.
