I have a 180 h.p. BD-4. I changed to a crossover exhaust. One of the pipes is near the outflow of the oil cooler and the cabin heat air box. The oil cooler takes it's cooling air via a SCAT tube from the back wall of the baffles. Could I run that air thru the cooler, the heat muff, and to the cabin as needed or exhaust it overboard when it's not needed? Is there enough flow thru the cooler to make it's way thru all that tubing?
