I’m sure it’s the same on the Camaro but it seemed to raise coolant temps instead of reducing oil temp. This is the set up I’m looking at. I’ll get a 32mm barbed coupler to replace the T fitting on the lower radiator hose and cap the water pump. If nothing else save a little front end weight and reduce complexity…. Unless I had an oil to air cooler. 🤔
I’m running that same block off plate as well. But the damn thing is so heavy, I swear it weighs more than the oil cooler did…
