In the good position the cooler remains full and is being pushed out of the cooler by the natural flow of oil into it. In the best position, gravity produces the natural flow through the cooler and no additional pushing or pulling needs to be done to compensate for the additional path that the oil has to travel through.

Hmmm, would that even matter? the oil is being pumped to the same height in the end. Perhaps you would get better flow through it if the outlet was at the top and the inlet at the bottom due to convection in the oil?

Edit: I take convection idea back, after thinking about it a bit more... it doesnt actually make any sense and wouldnt work that way lol
