Custom Oil Cooler Orientation

Hey everyone,

Little question, theoretically do you see an issue with the inlet and outlet of an oil cooler being at the bottom of the cooler? Would you trap an air pocket in the oil cooler preventing efficient cooling of the oil or the oil cooler to fill with oil? Also would draining down into the sump become an issue?

Thanks

I know nothing about oil coolers, but, I wouldn't put the inlet and outlet at the bottom of a radiator ......
