I am absolutely amazed at how well the GM evap. core is cooling the oil on my 20B installation.  Cooling well at WOT on the ground!  I would have previously thought this was not possible with a thick heat exchanger.  It does have the best diffuser I've built to date on it and has prop blast into it.

If you want less cooling drag build the radiators into the wing skins like a Supermarine racer.
 
I raced for years with one Harrison core for oil cooling in front of the water radiator. A poor installation with heated air going through the water radiator, but it worked just fine.
