REFLECTOR: Oil cooler (FG)

[nmflyer1 at aol.com]

My Velocity is too different to help with comparison. However: 

I have not had very good luck with the airflow style of coolers. I had one in my 180 and 235, and had constand weeps, leaks, high temps, etc. (even after "repaired/Refurbished").

I switched to this style:  http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/eppages/positech.php    
Have not had a single problem since in almost 1000 hrs. Temps are better, no leaks, etc. 

Might help in the V as well.

Hi All
'm thinking of replacing my oil cooler (FG) with a bigger one to get my oil 
emps down during hot Texas days.
 dont have room in the whine compartment for a 2nd.
o my question is who makes the most efficient oil cooler or are they all about 
he same?
 was looking to replace mine with a 2008x airflow.
unning an io360 200hp
Thanks for the thoughts
