Default How much will water temp drop after installing an oil cooler?
While I'm aware that my overheating problems could be traced to one of a dozen potential reasons, I'm wondering what you guys have experienced after fitting an oil cooler.

Today, my water temp hovered around 220 degrees, and the oil temp around 240 degrees. If I fit a good quality, large cooler, is it reasonable to expect the water temps to come down with the oil temps? By how much?

I'm getting sick of driving with one eye on the temp gauge

Thanks for any comments.
