Remi,
I can tell you, that the 7-row oil cooler in my setup is sufficient under ALL conditions.
That also (like many other things I've learned about cooling) is far
from logical, since I always had the oil too hot in summer even in cruise climb
90KIAS with the 13-row cooler (which I donated to the Europa Club :-) ) when
it was installed in tandem with the radiator previously.
Now I only left a gap of just 1 cm below the radiator with an aluminum sheet installed
in the tunnel, so that I have in sum the radiator surface and this 1 cm
gap below, where all air has to pass through in the tunnel. The oil cooler has
now 4 rows overlapping behind the radiator and only 3 rows get cool air from
this 1 cm gap.
In addition the aluminum sheet in the tunnel, which guides the air through the
radiator extends behind the oil cooler, so that no cool air is lost below the
oil cooler.
Regards

Bud,
no plug&play indeed. And I also fully agree, that a compromise has to be found
(ideally the best one) with a fix setup.
I'm just happy, that I finally (after >5 years of ownership) managed to find a
good compromise for me, although I did many things unconventionally and even some
different to your suggestions ;-) . I have now a good basis for further little
improvements - if one day I ever should have the feeling that I miss tinkering
(at the moment I write this, I cannot imagine it).
Happy landings
Roland
