Is a steering cooler necessary?
#11
That would probably work, as long as you got flow once up and running. These power steering pumps were originally designed to loaf along on the freeway at 1800 rpm. When you push a marine motor at 5000+, it is doing a lot of bypassing, generating tons of heat. So for most apps, a good cooler is a must.
