Front mounted Oil Cooler

[yetibone]

I am mounting an oil cooler in the front of Hummbug, behind the little grille under the bumper. I saw a picture of a Remmele Beetle in VWT and liked the idea. (the green one) Ours won't be as trick as that for fear of curb damage and stuff. It will be hidden pretty well where the front inpact absorption thing used to be.
My question is about getting the oil to the cooler and back. Will a "garden variety" hign volume Melling oil pump work? (that's what I have now) Is there anything special needed to keep oil pressure up after sending the oil that distance before it gets to the pressure control valve?

P.S.
It's a T1 oil pump on a T1 engine.
