you need to keep the EXHAUST cool.. IE 200 degrees instead of 900

if it's just in the intake as ferm is pointing out then it may not be needed but you HAVE to have wet exhaust or your bellows and shutters will burn and your manifold will be WAY too hot

yes the intake side I was talking about I wanted to stop hot water from the cooling system going in the intake I am aware that the cooler the intake charge the better the performance . I need to look at the system when I get it back together. so what your saying is the the engine coolant cools the engine oil

if you have the 4bbl intake, if you have the 2bbl intake, it doesn't have the oil cooler. Post up a pic of it

if the intake manifold was an original for a four barrel carburetor (Quadrajet) it would have the oil cooler, if it was for a two barrel carburetor(Mercarb) it will not have one. Post up a picture of the intake
