Radiator cooling/Oil Cooling/Reduction Pulley

I was talking to a fellow in a shop and he suggested the three things in the subject to not only get a little more out of my engine but for just overall engine health in general. I was curious about your guys' take on it and where good places would be to acquire them. Their installation difficulty would be handy as well.

it would be nice if you went into a little more of each one, other than just putting them into the name.

reduction pulley on what? do you mean a under drive pulley for the crank?

what kind of radiator cooling. mine already has 2 big electric fans on it. so
that doesn't really drag the motor (except i guess a little electrical when they turn on)

and a oil cooler? i'm not sure about that at all. someone else can chime in. unless you mean transmission oil cooler. than thats always a good idea on auto's

sorry i can't help you though

Stock radiator's sufficient enough, but if you think you'll have a problem with overheating, Milzy makes a bar and plate style all aluminum direct fit radiator.

If I don't need oil cooling, neither do you.

Underdrive pulleys are a joke.

This makes me sad...though I thought you could have better performance by keeping things running at cooler temperatures. May seem like a dumb question but is there a transmission cooling system on the market? Seems like when I am working mine really hard it begins to slip and not function as well. Just looking for other smaller things to do to increase performance without taking my engine apart yet. Is there anything along those lines that you would suggest if these are not helpful?
