If this was srictly true, then oil coolers don't work. Since we know oil coolers
work...

Sorry Ken.... physics are physics..... in cold weather a 3 plate cooler will work on any street engine...
that should tell you something...
There's not enough heat to offset the BTU losses in a Corvair body... let alone heat it up...
Sadly.. I tried once...and I know how to make a Vair engine run HOT in cold weather...
And inland SoCal seldom stays below 40f... and it didn't work...
But you're back east... prove me wrong!!!
