The hottest oil is sent to the Laminova, then to the oil/air exchanger. Return "cool" water is routed through the Laminova on its way back to the engine. If you're looking to cool 400 hp using only oil/air coolers, I would double the core size of my single cooler. Of course, this all depends on the effectiveness of your intake and exit plenums.
