Why are you leaving the stock oil cooler on there?
You live in So Cal. I live in Philadelphia. Last I checked, it gets cold here in the winter. The only reason I am considering leaving the stock "cooler" on is that it will help get the oil to operating temp more quickly. Hot oil is bad, but cold oil is bad as well. I want the best of both worlds.

I'm trying to avoid remote mounting my oil filter. If I was going to remote mount, all these filter length details would be moot. I would just throw on the big filter and call it a day.

Also, the cooler setup from BAT is $300. Saving $150 is worth my effort if I can pull it off.
