Oil cooler made from AC unit?
Has anyone turned the old air conditioner part in front of the radiator into an oil cooler?

this has been brought up before. I think we all decided that it wouldn't work because the passages are too small

yeah i had brought this up a while ago, while the inlets look pretty big, they divide into smaller tubes. it would be like forcing a gallon of honey through a stiring straw.
