This heat exchanger is about the best idea I have.
I have also seen sandwich type heat exchangers that stack on to where the oil filter attaches. But I have only seen those on 4 cylinder diesel engines.

Actually if I can find a oil filter heat exchanger that is big enough I would just use that instead. I would only have to run coolant lines, as opposed to oil and coolant lines.
