Reply to "Chesil Speedster - my planned winter overhaul of '98 build"

Oh, and a BIG reason to re-consider having the oil cooler way up front is (1.) you'll need a 30mm HD oil pump to move an adequate volume and (2.) the oil actually moves slower the closer you get to the inside walls of the hose it's traveling in because of "Wall Friction" (I made up that term, but you get the idea).  The longer the hose (and the more turns) the slower the oil will flow AND the more power it'll take to force it through the hose(s).  Just think "short is sexy" as a mantra for cooler and hose locations.
