Does anyone here have a 115hp 7ECA (0-235-C1) with an oil cooler, or know if there is one STC ed for this installation?

My O-235 has the opposite problem...it runs too cool. My A&P say it should run at 200° to get rid of the condensation. I have to run it at 2400 rpm or higher to get it that high in the summer, otherwise it's at about 175°. It runs even cooler in the winter. But I believe there is some kind of STC, as I have heard of them having an oil cooler. Sorry I can't steer you in the right direction.
 
Ron, I just put an oil cooler on my '67 ECA and it works great, no more high oil temps in the summer. I called Niagia Parts and they sent the right one. I found them fast friendly and helpful. I think the cost was around $240 but well worth it.
