Does it make sense to do this, or too convoluted, pull the Forester cooler? 185F is kind of low to have the oil cooler functioning anyways, continuing to warm the oil with coolant doesn't sound too bad.
Its for the connections to clear the oil catch for the oil filter.

I'm sure you can use the forrester but that stack will be really tall. If the oil filter can clear the hood stacked that high, and no oil leak, I dont see why that would not work.

Awesome, thank you. I'll take a closer look and see what I can come up with.
