ima keep it eazy
*vary large oil to air plate cooler (like a tranny one)
*12v electric hot oil pump ( gear/vane style pump with a motor mounted instead of shaft)
*high pressure hoses
*cut out and weld bungs in oil pan(weld on fitting on lower sump )
*and use a big rig dual filter remote mount
*= happy motor fixed or not !
