I'm just not sure it's going to help you...
I also thought of running one using an outboard boat water-cooled oil cooler, and plumbing it in-line with my air-water intercooler. But when I looked into it I couldn't find much more benefit than just me thinking it would help.

the honda engine is neat, it does really highlight that the fuel they used was weird though.
i wonder how much cooling youd really need with gasoline? it might be that a loop of aluminum line, like a PS loop would be plenty
either that or maybe it would be simpler to hook up the fuel pump speed relay
