I run mine right next to the oil remote pad? Now the guys at Paul Pfaff racing have recommended that unless you are running an thermomatically controlled cooler you should run the oil conter flow direction and vise versa for the controlled coolers.

I knew there was a reason I did my the way I did it. I now wonder why the thermomatically controlled cooler is better the other way? TC, Your guess?

There really is no right way just the way you like to rig your boat.

We run the in the thermostat first then the return line second just because the cooler also cools the power steering and it works out nice being so close to the cooler.

No rhyme or reason, just thats the way it is!
