I don't think air cooled oil coolers are particularly sensitive to where they 
are sited on a Spridget, or perhaps even any car.

I would think twice about a low mounting position (as you suggest) as there 
may be a susceptibilty to damage from stones.

 comfortable with that idea. Doesn't it just block flow to the radiator? I
 was thinking of cutting a hole in the fan shroud\radiator holding thing
 below the radiator to mount the oil cooler. Again I am afraid that all the
 oncoming air will go though the oil cooler and not flow upwards towards the
 radiator. Any ideas? Suggestions ? Thanks.
