Oil cooler or JR Dual radiator
 
So I currently have the edelbrock supercharger and plan on purchasing either one of these. I know that the edelbrock kit requires an oil cooler that isn’t mounted in front of the LTR so I’m leaning towards the Full Blown Motorsport or the GReddy oil cooler.

So my question is, which one will be better suit in keeping my engine oil cooler?

Neither, because neither will fit without further modification.

JR DROC or Harrop oil cooler is the way to go.

What are your thoughts on spending a few hundred extra for the:

JR Oil Cooler v2 + Koyo Rad

vs

JR DROC

for the purpose of regular spirited driving and couple track days a year? :burnrubber:

The former won't work with a Edelbrock supercharger, so go with the latter.

Depends on the application and/or purpose of the car, but probably the latter for my own use case.

Is that your car on a track? In that case, also the latter.

PM me to order.

I go with Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum

Also just read through a massive thread that if you do not track/autocross regularly an oil cooler is not totally necessary. You are not going to heat the oil enough to drop pressure:
