I'm getting closer to installing my -6 oil cooler and lines. I have seen numerous ways of running the lines incl through the longs, under the rockers etc. but I have not decided yet. If you would comment on how you ran your lines and the positive and negatives of the end results, it would make a good thread and go perfect with the recent oil cooler thread.. Pictures would be helpful.

One of the reasons my thermostat is mounted up front is that my oil tank is up front. (so I'm pumping cool oil up that far anyway).
I don't drive mine in the winter months (no heater anyway), so really cold oil isn't a factor. Other reassurances that I have that my method works is that our track car has been plumbed this way for 8+ years without issue. Oil temperatures are never above 200 (even in 100+ track days with 2 drivers) and are usually just above 180. My spare (space saver) is bolted down in the alternate factory provided location in the rear trunk (that is what the threaded hole is for check it out). (Yes the top still fits) |
