And,  I'll point out again 
that if it didn't work like that, then why did Chevy  put the side 
shields on the '68 - '69  Corvairs?



Hi Bryan,
The reson was to keep the hot air exiting the outsides of the oil cooler  
from re-entering the engine compartment and heating to engine.
 
I unfortunately don't have an oil cooler handy to photograph, so I  will 
defer continuation of this discussion for a couple of weeks until I can get  to my 
stash........Until then............
