Couldn't agree more. But since I'm not running 500-600 RWHp nor running above 
5500 in 5th for more than 10 minutes at a time- and with this economic 
climate, likely never to do so, the cop/taxi cooler works for my street engine. Note 
that Ford offered more than one 'factory' oil cooler over the years and some 
WERE piss-ant-small: the semi-useless 5.0-L Mustang unit comes to mind. 
Get'cher wax and buffing rags out- if Dan beats you with his Pantera next 
time out, at least you can make 'The Phoenix' look prettier than his car (at 
least the last time I saw it....) Cheers- J Deryke
