Here's an interesting cooler set up, done on a 3.0 245hp engine running in cali heat with no issues. Done for an original /6 that the owner didn't want cut up for a front cooler.
What do you guys think? BTW before you totally knock it it was done by Henry Schmidt at Supertec, so the builder does have some credibility.(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650724.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/forums.pelicanparts.com-26-1286650846.3.jpg) |

Wouldn't be my choice but it's not my car.
However - I don't like forged 90ยบ hose ends in any part of the oil circuit. OK - space might be tight for that front one, but the back one needs a bent-tube 90... But since it'a a compromise solution, and scavenge oil is basically foam anyway, probably not a big deal. Why not just use a heat exchanger with the ports on the ends to start with, and avoid the 90's completely?... |
