IMO, the Ultracool (UC) is better than the Jagg...I have installed many of both, and three of my own HD's are or will be running the UC. I have witnessed a 40 degree drop in my oil temp here in the hot Texas summer and never had a leak. The UC comes with way nicer lines with threaded fittings instead of rubber oil line and hose clamps along with the dual fans and a better overall look with the three cover options. I don't work for the company or have any affiliation with them, I sell UC , Jagg and Feuling oil coolers and of the three my customers and I have been extremely happy with the UC units.
I picked up an Oil Bid Cooler recently ànd will install once Spring arrives.
I had an Oil bud for 7 years. It worked well but the adapter plate kept leaking and to my error I tightened it up and eventually it caused the threads to literally strip out.
So this time going to go with ultra cool.

Yep that's the one I'm going with.
Spoke with Larry at length the other day at Ultracool.
Do you have one then?
No I don't yet, but I'm eyeballing it. I need to call him because I would like to know if they have a pic of one on a breakout. I have an hd cooler, but want a fan assisted one. I also have been thinking of making my own fan setup, but have been lazy.
Just like to let others know of my experience with ultra-cool oil coolers in my opinion they are number one. I upgraded my engine from an 88 cubic inch to a 107 ci any engine builder suggested putting an engine cooler on it because it was somewhat more compression and performance. He says it will Preserve the life of your engine and he recommended ultra-cool because of the fans that turn on at 234 degrees drop the temperature roughly 15 or 20 and turn off. I have seen it really work well in this Florida weather in the summertime I do recommend removing the the grill which is very simple cutting a small piece of house screen to fit in the area where the grill is and reinstall the grill to prevent small objects flying into the coolers fans. I have had to replace several fans because the debris hitting the blade and breaking them just an idea to save you time and headache
