Just my $0.02.
Good idea...Or, I installed an oil cooler because the empty cowling wouldn't look good, but I didn't hook it up. Ran the lines to each side of the radiator and capped them off where they can't be seen. I can always hook it up if I want to but my oil temp rarely hits 90 C (194 F) so definitely not needed for street driving, even in summer weather.
