If you decide to go with a square syste, there is an outfit in Southern
Cal called Specialized. They produce an oil cooler like you are looking
for for Toyota Pickups. Now take a guess what oil filter fits on both
the SV and my 92 Toyota PU. I believe Rick at SS has a convertor for
Series II to SV oil filters. I would guess there is a good start at
finding a reasonable unit for cooling your oil. Let me know if you need
Phone numbers, etc.
