Default more oil flow for an extra oil cooler kit?

I am thinking of installing an extra oil cooler kit.. something like this

http://www.jcwhitney.com/webap...26592

would I need extra oil flow to compensate? If so, what kind of aftermarket oil pump should I get to compensente the flow?

any other oil cooler kits that are better them the b&m?

thanks

if this is for daily driver on nearly stock car, stock oil cooler is good enough.

Flow will be the same. Maybe a 2 psi drop in oil pressure could be expected, and thats not much.

Many different coolers are out there, but they can be quite expencive. You should also consider an oil thermostat if this is going into a street car, and that is not included in the b&m kit.

I've seen a couple kits in the classifieds lately, you should search for them.

More info can be found by searching the ITR and RR/AX forums.
