That's a lot of coolers. I assume 1 each for blower, tranny, and engine?

I like the placement of the coolers, which is allowing optimal cooling. Serves as a nice mesh too.

I like the way the trans/engine oil coolers are mounted. Direct cold air for both!
Thanks for the pics!

The supercharger needs it's own oil cooler?

The supercharger is self-lubricated; uses its own oil. It cannot share a cooler with the engine. And because it spins at a really high rpm, I think the oil cooler is there to prolong its life. Kinda like an engine cooler for our engines. It's not necessary, but definitely helps.

So, how efficient are those oil coolers and transmission coolers? How hot is the oil or transmission fluid expected to be? Ultimately, how hot is the air going into the air filters?

A couple of questions Sam:

You answered the question before, but can you explain exactly what each of the 4 coolers I see in this photo is for?

Is there going to be some finishing screen or anything placed in front of the coolers in the fake vent openings to prevent them from being damaged?
