Radiator with Built in Oil Cooler for 04 GTO
Wondering if anyone has installed a radiator with a built in oil cooler for their 04 GTO? And if so what line kit they used. I spoke to Dewitts, and they told me they have built radiators for the 04 GTO, waiting to hear back from them to see if they can build one with the integrated oil cooler, maybe someone here has had one built for them? Im curious about fitment issues, and what line kit they used, Im thinking a line kit for a 5.3L truck engine would work. Also does an oil cooler setup require a thermostat, or can it be run without one.

Why not just run a separate dedicated cooler? Unless you run your car in the winter I do not think that a thermostat style cooler would be necessary. So long as you size the cooler appropriately over-cooling should not be an issue. Any reason in particular that you need an oil cooler?

Phantom Black Metallic- 2004 GTO M6
The only oil coolers I've read about were the ones that connect to an adapter that mounts on the filter housing and runs to an external cooler that mounts to the radiator. Never heard of a radiator that has an internal oil cooler.

Dewitt's is a company I have found that build rads with fully integrated internal oil cooler, and then yes you plumb the oil from the connections at the oil filter.
