Can anyone comment on their experience with the Mocal sandwich plate with the built-in thermostat? -Mike



Hi Mike,

lots of people use them
Me too...

they may not be the prettiest piece of casting in the world, but they get the job done. I used my first one around 1990.

when the car became a race car, we gutted the built in thermostat and did everything we could to reduce the hinderance to flow.

when the car became a street car again we put a sandwhich adapter with thermostat back into it.

I would recommend a higher volume oil pump with an aux cooler too.
