I went another route, I went water-cooled. I mounted a 12-volt water pump just under the fuel pump (1972). I then modified the oil filter housing to accept an oil to water cooler from a Golf / Jetta / Vanagon. I used an aftermarket aluminum finned inline transmission cooler. I hand bent it to fit under the car and just in front of the engine. In the trunk I mounted a Rabbit coolant bottle and ran the hoses through the plastic cups down into the engine compartment and then through the rain gutter tube holes. I have not yet been able to determine the effectiveness since I haven’t yet installed an oil coolant temperature gauge.
