I am converting to a 6 cyl. I have a 2.2e case. I purchased a PMS tank. I have been able to figure out the normal routing for the oil lines however I already had an oil cooler in the front of my car from my previous engine. I was using a Mocal Sandwich plate. Here are my questions-
1. I plan on using non-stock oil lines- what size should I use? I already have 10an for my front oil cooler- is 10AN adequate. 2. Is there a way that I can use my Mocal sandwich plate? If not- which type of thermostat should I get? At what level should it open (I think my current is 180 degrees)? 3. Where does the line from the vent hose on the oil filler neck connect? Does it connect to the vent on the center/top of the case? |

Does the RX7 cooler still have it's thermostat and small ports or has been modified for -12 lines?
Do you have the single box intake? There should be a port/nipple on it somewhere. |

There should be a port/nipple on it somewhere. My cooler has been modified for -12 lines. It does not have a thermostat. I have the dual K&N water shield type filters. |
