The other day I saw a gentleman with an aftermarket oil cooler that was put in his front wheel well.
The wheel well itself had a hole cut out and that is where the cooler was.
According to the fella he said that it gets really good air there, does it? Seems like you can't beat having something like that in the front, closest to the nose?

I would think that there wouldn't be alot of air there.

That is why most people put them in front of the radiators.

Did he have it located so that the brake cooling duct was blowing directly on it? It not, that sounds like a stupid location.

Absolutely!
