Make sure you do your home work first. I put an oil cooler on a new motor once. First run the distributor filled up with oil and I just though it was a bad distributor. Second run cam ended up in the oil pan. builder said oil cooler lines were too big. I don't know if it was true or he was covering his ass. cam bearings were clear gone also

Oil in the dizzy isn't a bad one. You had waaaaaaaaayyyyy to much crankcase pressure.

This system could help an engine run a long time but unfortunately there's too much engineering. Just the fittings and hoses I picked were a $1000. And one accumulator if not more are needed.

Im waiting for someone to start running a dry sump setup like the roundy round guys are doing. Iv though about it but the initial cost is a good bit. I know of a few guys that have ran them they seam to work well butyoyr best bet is to find an old esh sprint car motor or something along those lines instead of starting from scratch to run a dry sump system that's what the guys I know did and worked perfectly

I don't run one but here's a few of my thoughts- why not take a oil cooler setup off a 90's chevy pickup?. Should work fine- GM probably spent millions on engineering them, I can't see how they could hurt anything.
