I had oil cooling problems with the 2180 using the stock cooler. I tried a lot of different cooler configurations. The one I found that works on that engine is the one that Revmaster sells. It works almost too well. You can see how I had it set up for my VW, on my web site, if you like.

My 0-200 has no oil cooler, uses a 6 quart kidney shaped tank hanging below the engine in free moving air and my oil temp has never exceeded 210 F that I can recall.
