Hi Aaron,
You don't happen to know who has the STC or what the number is do you? I
searched the FAA site and came up empty handed.

There is an STC for the Cherokee 180 with the firewall mounted oil cooler
to add just such a device. At least in my airplane the oil temperature
stayed at 180 without such a device, thus I never pursued it further.
