I just started to install my /6 for the first time. I have the trailing arms off my car so I didn't notice at first that I will probably have a clearance issue. I didn't realize that 911 and 914/6 have slightly different oil coolers.
It appears that stock 914/6 oil coolers are NLA. I have seen several posts about oil cooler modifications. What are my options for a /6 oil cooler that will clear the trailing arm? What is the cheapest option? FYI- I don't think it matters here however I do have a front oil cooler also. |
