Message	I'm wondering if any of you have found a better oil cooler than the stillen one, which I have. It works fine until you get stuck in traffic, then you can see the oil temps start to rise to 110C when caught in an extended traffic jam during the summer. What I am looking for is an oil cooler with and aux. fan that has either a thermostat or just a switch I can turn on when the oil temp starts to rise. OR, I have also thought about just getting a small fan and a switch to mount on my oil cooler. The limiting factor for the size of a new cooler is the clearance, in height to the twin pop. Also, I can't seem to find a small enough fan to mount on my current cooler. Anyone have any ideas?....Thanks. Fred 95 300TT SGP Stage..Who knows..lol Dynoed 539.4 RWHP, 481.2 Lbs.
