My buddy is considering buying a half finished 914 project car that will need a few things including an oil cooler for the 3.2 six. What do shops usually charge for parts and labor generally for this, ballpark? Thanks.

Ben’s kit makes it a straightforward project that follows the factory’s engineering. A front cooler is always the preferable solution as once it’s installed, you’re done. When I did my conversion, I used AN fittings and Aeroquip lines (the only available option at the time), but the engineering and fabricating time wouldn’t be worth it now that a solution is easily available.
