Thanks all... Sounds like th ebes thing to do is run the cooler independent of the oil feed lnes. From what I have read tapping off the pan is the best way to achieve this. My plan is as follows and please let me know if you see something wrong with this. I will weld low on the pan an outlet to a circulatory pump (Tilton 40524). The pump will feed the cooler and return back to the pan at approximately the full level of the pan. The pump will be triggered by a thermal switch that is in the oil filter relocation line. As i read this way I can control oil temp and not impede on the oil pressure of the oiling circuit. Let me know if this is correct....Thanks
