Did you post it on VetteMOD?? If so I couldn't find it. I was going to let them know I was going. Like that would help.

I din't read the whole thread, but to answer the question, an oil cooler will only cool the oil. (Not a bad thing). Your combustion temp won't change a bit.

Yeah, as I imagine now, it would be nominal to nothing as you say. Originally I was thinking that with cooler oil running through the engine, the engine "environment" for lack of a better word would likewise be cooler, sapping some heat from combustion.

I'm not what I'd call "local", but do I get to play too?

Noble thought. 99% of combustion temps are at the top 25% of the cylinder. Next time your here, I'll show you a Model T engine. The bottom 75% of the cylinder has no water jacket.

What was the compression on those engines? Wasn't it just sort of like pushing air together with your hands.
