Seems that the passage in the block is only so big, so I can't see the need for a huge oil feed line. Also, this car had only one scavenge stage going to an oil cooler. The other scavenge stage went straight to the oil tank. I've heard of this being done, but something tells me I can do better. I'm thinking of putting the cooler in the pressure side, between the filter and the block. Any thoughts?
