Re: [T3] Stretching valve stems?

<x-flowed>SteveJ=> In view of this problem, would it be beneficial to relocate
=> the oil cooler and/or add some sort of forced-air fan cooling?

With overheat, the problem is not that the stock cooling system is 
inadequate or wrongly designed, rather that something is out of spec and 
needs fixing.

If you're thinking that the oil cooler impedes air cooling of #3, it's 
just not a concern. It can rob some cooling air if, for example, the 
foam cooler seal is missing (and this is more a problem for the cooler 
than the head), but when it's all in spec it works just fine.
