I will add that I have no hard data like temps to compare before and after..Only feel and performance. One summer to the next and riding in 100+ degrees, I know the bike works better than before and even my wife noticed last week and said it didn’t feel that as much heat was hitting her legs, so that is good enough for me.

I like what you've done in a short period of time
I remember Ghost's thread a couple years ago. (whoa, 2017! time flies)
During that time I did basically the same thing but with Jagg and I too left the biscuit out. Jagg's had a thermostat to control flow but I figured that down below the snow belt it only caused me to maybe wait a minute before I left the garage to disturb the neighbor. I really like how 3guyz machined the port into their cone for your thermostat.
I have been looking for a place to put an electric temp sensor so that I can add an oil temp gauge on my rocker box, thinking that it will make it easy enough to just look down to see the temp (it would look like an old school pressure gauge). That port on the cone looks to be a good place for the sensor since the spot where Harley would put it is blocked by a frame support for the jiffy stand.
Looks like I will follow your lead and give 3guyz a call to begin "Oil cooler v2.0". They were great to deal with the first time. Hopefully it won't turn into a wait 'til winter project.

Sorry, forgot all about your request. Here you go.
Been solid so far. No leaks, fan for cooler goes on after about 30 min of rinding in the pleasant SW Florida summer heat... Glad I have it, as well as the Love Jugs. Bike runs about 20deg cooler on average then my M8 Road King Special
