[Fot] Was: Oil Cooler or Oil filter first? Now how to IDflow outt he adapter?

Many new vehicles have oil to water coolers.  The engine coolant warms faster and that heat is used to warm the oil faster.  My Volvo V70 has it as does my Honda S2000.  The Volvo one circulates coolant down to an attachment on the oil pan.  The S2000 one is an oil filter adapter that has coolant circulating thru it.  Joe(B)

Interesting discussion, I have a mildly warmed up TR4A street car. D cam, 87mm, .100 milled head and lightened flywheel. No oil cooler but I do use the larger capacity aluminum oil pan. My issue is getting the oil hot enough. Stock radiator with a Richard Good radiator shroud. Even at highway speeds my oil does not get much above 180 / 190 when ambient temperatures are below 75 degrees. 180 degree thermostat installed. Driving around town the oil never gets above 180. Ambient temperatures above 75 allows the oil to get to 220 at highway speeds. I guess I could go to a higher degree thermostat but I’d risk overheating in street traffic. I have an electric fan set to come on at 190.Any suggestion on how to get the oil hotter? I run 20W/50 Brad Penn oil.JVV
