If you are strictly looking for an oil cooler then I recommend the Derale Plate-Fin Engine Oil Cooler Kit # D15405 which is a Class V plate-fin cooler so it is very efficient. It includes an adjustable sandwich adapter and multiple threads to ensure that it fits properly.

This cooler measures 9-7/8" wide x 9-1/2" tall x 1-1/4" deep so you just need to mount it in a place where it will get the max amount of airflow, like between your grille and the AC condenser core. Attached is a helpful article on engine oil coolers for you to reference as well.

We also have transmission and engine oil combination coolers like the Derale # D15902 which, as the name states, will cool both your transmission fluid and your engine oil with one system. This specific part measures 17" wide x 12-1/2" tall x 3/4" deep and has the same mounting guidelines as the oil cooler mentioned above.
