I thought I'd see if anybody knows a sure-fire fix for oil cooling problems. I have a (claimed) 230 Hp AEIO-360 in a bolt that really doesn't like to stay cool. The oil cooler is mounted to the engine mount behind the left rear of the engine with the cooling air drawn via 3" scat from the top left rear baffle. The cooler is a positech. A long climb at 100 mph on an 80 degree day will drive oil temps up N of 230 until you get nervous and pull the power. I'm wondering about alternative coolers, dual coolers, different mounting schemes, etc. Suggestions welcome and a case of fine beer or a bottle of reasonable wine to anyone who has a suggestion and shows up to claim the booze!
