Is there a standard size oil cooler to use behind a 916 or 914-6 front grill?

If you real want to go RX7 cooler buy a new one, they are very inexpensive. I will cost more to send used cooler off to be properly cleaned. 25years ago I used a RX7 cooler on the front of my 911(worked great), I had a shop modify it and weld in the appropriate fittings. Not sure its worth the trouble today with so many proven options.

This would go on an other than stock 4 cylinder engine that was driven all year long in the socal low desert. Doing all I can do to get as much air in for cooling and an oil cooler. I had one in the rear but in the summer it was less than effective. So it will go up front where the coolest air is. I’ve seen the aftermarket rx7 coolers, I’ll just save for a while longer.
