I took the night off working on the Type 4 Puma and plan on hitting it hard tomorrow night to finish up the oil cooler install. Then I can drive the wheels off of this thing.
I was wondering why a heater core with blower fan can't be used as an oil cooler so the engine oil heat could be used to heat the interior of the car? Makes sense to me. I would love to hear the gangs knowledge on this one.

My engine oil rarely gets hot enough to open the thermostatic valve for my oil cooler in summer, and never in spring or fall. You want the oil hot enough to circulate and lubricate properly. Too cold, it's too thick, too hot it breaks down.
