oil cooler or not

I've run into two very opposing views ; engine builder states he does not believe in oil coolers ... He's builds many full race set-ups for the dirt guys & claims that theres not a harder run motor !!!
Mechanic / road racer says BS ; cooler in !!! This ties into the fact that this motor run flawless on the dyno w/out & lasted 10 minutes in the car w/ the cooler ... Verified line configuration ; correct "at dis-assembly ?!?!" ; new lines & cooler also installed prior ... I might follow the engine builders advise ... I can't stomach another melt down ...The cost of the "second" re-build between these two guys is not resolved ; I'm watching from the side lines...Any thought ??? Thanks/Paul W.
