Bit of a dumb idea but what if you make the air exhaust at the back bigger so it makes that you dont build up any pressure above the radiator maybe it wil help to improve the flow
regarding the Oil cooling ...do you currently only have the OEM Oil-to-water oil cooler fitted? If that is the case, you may also be dealing with high oil temps heating up the engine coolant, which may be making you cooling situation worse. It might be a good idea to remove the OEM Oil cooler, and fit a dedicated Air-to-Oil cooler. btw, what was the problem with the Rallycar that caused it to retire? Was it the power steering issue?
I don't have any oil cooler ATM as could not find the original Modine unit. I think it will be a good option to fit a stand alone one as won't hurt trying and at lease will pro-long the engine life! Yes the rally car retired due to power steering. It maybe a weak pump at the end of the day along with damaged pipe. Thanks for your input.
That would be a more sensible option. I would have to get rid of the FMIC and revert back to the OG top mount. I want to keep the body looking Peugeot and not have a massive scoop in the bonnet! + The rear mount setup helps balance the car well!

Not a dumb idea, possibly could help things!
Hope this cooling issue gets sorted ! Any chance we’ll be seeing you at Autos de france next weekend?

Hi mate. Why don’t you extend the front of the car , putting the radiator back at the front , thus eliminating a lot of issues? Just a thought.

A oil cooler will makes a lot of difference thats wy thay put them on mines to stop them overheating. So that would be a good idea. 👍
Thanks yes good shout!
