I’m looking for some ideas on adding an oil cooler to my 914-6 gt clone. The car currently has a 2.2s spec motor running without an external oil cooler. Temperature has never been an issue, but it seems like a good idea to have some extra cooling. I’m not interested in cutting up the front trunk at the moment. There doesn’t look like enough room to mount one in the front nose without doing so. What other options are available? Thanks in advance.

I’ve seen a few rear cooler installations. Mostly for bigger type IV motors. I was wondering if it was worth the effort to plumb something into the fender. I understand that the location is far from ideal. It is amazing to me that everything stays relatively cool using solely the engine oil cooler. I even double checked my gauge for accuracy. I guess until I decide to open the nose up and do it correctly, the consensus is leave it alone. One less thing on the “to do” list! I appreciate everyone’s input.
