Remote Oil Cooler -8AN w/ Fan

The Remote Oil Cooler -8AN w/ Fan from DERALE is an essential upgrade for high-performance vehicles, street rods, and modified engines that demand superior thermal management. Whether you're running a turbocharged engine, frequently towing heavy loads, or pushing your vehicle in spirited driving conditions, oil temperature control directly impacts engine longevity and reliability. This remote-mounted cooler keeps oil temperatures within the optimal 180–200°F range, preventing viscosity breakdown and reducing wear on critical internal components during sustained high-load operation.

The remote cooler design features a compact aluminum core with integrated -8AN barbed fittings that connect directly to your engine's oil filter housing or external oil pump circuit via standard braided hose lines. The included electric fan operates independently from engine RPM, responding to actual oil temperature via a thermostat-controlled switch rather than relying on engine speed—this means efficient cooling even at idle and active cooling during highway cruising or track use. The aluminum construction resists corrosion while maintaining excellent heat dissipation, and the fan draws minimal electrical current, making it compatible with stock alternators and battery systems on most vehicles.

Mechanics and enthusiasts frequently install this cooler on LS-swapped builds, supercharged applications, diesel trucks, and vintage vehicles undergoing modern powertrain conversions—any setup where stock cooling inadequately handles modified output or extreme duty cycles. The remote mounting flexibility allows installation in tight engine bays or undersides of the chassis where a traditional sandwich-plate cooler won't fit. Installation requires basic hose routing and an engine compartment power source; no modifications to the block or oil pump are necessary, making this a bolt-on solution for serious cooling upgrades.
