I would like to use the oil radiator location for a pair of air-to-water intercooler radiators.

The only reason I mentioned the oil radiator and sandwich plate adapter is because the oil thermostat (in the sandwich plate adapter) needs to be taken into consideration when installing an Accusump. If the Accusump is installed on the oil return line, it may discharge fine, but I don't think it will charge as long the thermostat is closed. It may be necessary to install a sandwich plate adapter that doesn't have a thermostat and use an extermal thermostat.
