You know the oil cooler heatsink on the drivers side of the motor behind the intake manifold? What if I rigged something like a super duper fan onto the oil cooler kind of like a hopped up CPU freon self contained system. It would not be hard to do, but is it practicle ? It would be fun.....

I think it would be doable, but would there be any benefit? You'd need a pretty hefty, all-weather, fan to do it.
I think it'd be more effective to have some kind of ducting to redirect air to it.
Either from under the car (I believe the underpanels already do some of this) , or as a 'take off' from either the air intake or the engine bay side vent.
Even then, I wonder if the heat exchanger isn't 'maxed out' already and getting all the airflow it can handle.
Interesting concept though.
