I am putting new hose on my external oil cooler. I am trying to figure out which side of my sandwich plate is the output side so I know which side to put my thermostat on. Can anybody give me an idea base on this picture. I am trying to avoid taking the sandwich plate off. I cranked the starter for a few seconds to see which side the oil came from however it came out of both sides so that was't much help.
Below is a link to the same adapter plate that I have- http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performance+Pro.../51712/10002/-1 |

If it will help- the thermostatic spring is on the right side in my picture? I cannot remember exactly how the sandwich plate works. Am I correct in saying that the thermostatic spring is normally on the output side? If the spring is open, then the oil goes straight to the filter- if it is closed then it goes to the cooler- is this correct?
