Hi - the oil cooler on the 2.4 L has its factory fitting which appears to be just a hose clamp that keeps it from leaking. The Patrick Motorsports fit has a weld in tube that has a threaded fitting.

If the his clamp was good enough for an 911 would it be just fine to simply take the same approach on a 914/6?
