In my 50 hour RV-7, I have sorted out most of my temp issues except for oil temperature. I cannot keep the temps below 200 during climb even while climbing out at 140 KIAS. They will come down below 200 once leveled off and running LOP, but not during ROP ops. Thus, I am thinking of investing in a different oil cooler than the one Vans supplies with the FF kit.
I have found an Aero Classics one that claims to drop the temps by approx 20 deg and will fit on my existing baffle mount (cylinder 4). Can anyone recommend the Aero Classic oil cooler and/or give me a recommendation for another BAFFLE MOUNTED oil cooler?
I do not intend to have this thread creep into the other firewall mounted oil cooler options. Just interested in better performing oil coolers that can easily replace my existing cooler.
Thanks!
