Hi is that in the front?
you could go for Mocal oil coolers from either demon twockers or amber performance type chaps... fit them in the front wings under the head lamps with some cheeky old school looking ventage... if its in the back the same just behind the running boards... sorry I´ve gone all "Foose"

... you can get Spal fans that should cover that or radiators for no more than 200 euros.

If you have a look at the oil coolers in the rotary extreme website (link above), they have a run down of how much bigger their ones are compared to standard, so you could have a look on there and see how the mocals compare :)
