Default Oil cooler?

Are any of you guys running one? I can really tell a difference in the car in general like the sound and valve train noise after a few hard runs. Just wondering if it would make a difference?

no I don't but I'm thinking about running one. I have the hookups on my radiator for the oil cooler. Just not sure how to rout It there.

Only one I ran is in my 2500 Silverado, so no real info there

Never ran one in any other vehicle I've owned.
My Camaro might see 175* when I run her hard....usually 160-165* cruising around, so I don't feel a need for one.
