Default Oil Cooler

Would it be possible to use the AA S/C oil cooler as an aditional oil cooling system on the S54 oil system?

Why, it would not do any good. You would have to remove the oil temperature thermostat from the oil filter housing. I don't recommend doing this on a street car.

Sure. If you are tracking the car, more oil cooling is definately not a bad thing. for a street car, I agree with tec548...no real need.

You can also just get the secondary oil cooler that VPD makes. Joel will sell you one I'm sure.
