I've never understood the need of an oil cooler in a street driven Cobra. I despise them, as well as remote filter adapters. I understand that in some Cobras, such as the SPF cars, the filter adapter is almost necessary due to room constraints. However, on others, the excuse that it makes it easier to change the oil isn't worth the extra expense and trouble.

I would not tolerate any pressure drop, especially at just 4000 rpm.

I would also not tolerate a Royal Purple oil filter. Keep the Motorcraft, or better yet, a Wix Racing filter.
