auto radiator oil cooler??

[jynxtrix]

so I had this idea the other day, my car was originally an automatic, I sapped in the ca motor, but I'm still running my stock radiator, which was for an automatic. which means it has the old lines for the transmission cooler still there. I guess what I'm asking is what would happen if I ran my oil lines to my transmission cooling lines in my old radiator? Would it work? or is motor oil going to be too thick? and how would be the best way to route it? Is there a punmp that forces oil through the turb, or is it just gravity feed back from the top of the engine?

Not worth it! If your engine was originally an auto, your engine should have an oil on the filter housing. If it does, there's the short-cut to your idea. But if it doesn't have an oil cooler on the filter housing, but yo got to have an external cooler, do it the right way and get a remote unit. I'm locking this because though I appreciate your vision, I don't want NICO to end-up losing another CAer because you failed to take heed to the advice given. Whatever route you chose, good luck with it; but no oil into the radiator .
