retarded/insane idea (ac condenser to oil cooler)



yes.. but I would have to laugh when your engine fries.. too risky.  Plus.. you don't want oil that is less than 100 C.  The reason is that water will then condense and that is bad.  Gas vapor will also condense in the oil.  This is why we change oil so much... oil doens't go bad very fast but it collects bad things.  The stock cooler (sometimes) does a good job keeping the oil from 100-110 which is perfectly good.

A better use for the AC system is as an air compressor.  I connected a pump from a dead 84 to a 1hp electric motor and got about 80psi out of it.  makes a nasty sound, but it hasn't blown yet.  squirt oil in it for good luck
