Hi guys,
Just looking for some opninions as usual.
I am in the process of trying to decide if I want to utilize the oil cooler that was on my car when I purchased it or simply go back to a spin on adaptor with no cooler. If I was to utilize the cooler, I was going to have new lines made up as the current ones are showing signs of wear.
This car will not see the track again and will only see the road in the future. Regardless, I am intetested in hearing your opinions on the following.
1. Should I re-install the cooler or ditch it...is it enough of a benefit to keep it?
2. Interested also on installation location. I have included some pics below of how it was installed on the car. The rad shroud/ducting was "customized" around the cooler. Is there a better location? I am not opposed to making mods to the apron...I have seen some vintage racing pics with ducting in the bottom centre of the apron...wondering if there is a cooler behind the ducting? Since I am having the hoses made up (if required based on the answer to question 1)I figured that I would ask about location before I had this done.
Cheers,
M. Pied Lourd
