you mean improve Oil cooling ?
Seems that it would...the idea being that you are air-cooling the engine
coolant flowing through the oil cooler/heat exchanger gizmo.
Not the most elegant and clean approach let's say.

Obviously a 'real' air type oil cooler would do a better job.
I was very impressed ( seldom happens with many vendors' products with
me ) with Ten Cent Life's waterboxer oil cooler set up.  In fact, zero
criticisms or complaints.
Somewhat expensive, but 'the real deal'   Fan assisted and thermostat
controlled I believe.
I put one on one of his engines...never had to give it a thought ..went
on right, worked right.
