Advice on removing an oil cooler on a Series 1 4.2

Hello I've just joined the club following the Silverstone event, where my E Type suffered with the delays to get on to the parade lap. The car is fitted with an oil cooler but what with this and the extra fan in the nose, air flow to the water radiator is somewhat restricted. I'm now fitting the lat...
