So, I am looking for a front oil cooler for my 914-4. I have priced many out and so far they are on 2 ends of the spectrum. Mocal 13"x5.75"x2" at $130 and the Fluidyne 21"x5.88"x3" at $320 (or is there a better price?). I have heard folks speaking of Mazda coolers, etc. What is the best bang for your buck cooler out there? I am trying to find something that is at least 16-18" wide and around 6" tall. Are junkyards a good place? What cars and where are they?

Thanks,
Chris

BTW, I am in the South Bay

rich, thanks... I should have read more closely..
Chris, I'm sorry if it sounded like I was harping on you about the front mounting thing.......

I haven't run my fluidyne(s) yet, but can't say strongly enough how much higher quality they appear to be over the earls cooler I've run in the past....

I'm plumbing in my new car.. twin fluidyne double pass coolers.... like I said.. I'm tired of dinking around with cooling.
