You can get one made. A few companies will make you an all alloy high efficiency one. I priced one up a while ago. The guy was talking about £500 if I remember correctly. Google it. You would need to send him you original to take dimensions etc. I am thinking of replacing mine at some point to cool the VR6 a bit more efficiently. I am using the stock water cooled oil cooler with race oil (keeps its viscosity at high temps). My oil runs at about 110 degrees. I used to have an oil cooler up front but it sprung a leak so did away with it and went back to normal oil cooler and race oil.
