OK Guys, I am well underway on my 2.8L conversion.
I have not plumbed the car yet but did build a 911 race car before and did not mod the stock oil cooler.

I see on clewett engineering that there is a mod to the stock cooler for 914/6, and also see on smartracing that there is a subsitution plate fixture that allows you to mount an oil filter right there and simply and in /out for my front oil cooler.

Any suggestions on which works best.

Filter right at the engine sounds better than filtering any contaiminates through my oil lines, drysump, accusump oil accumulator and front cooler, but is pricey.

$145 for stock cooler mod, plus I would need remote oil filter +$100
$240 for block off plate w/filter
