Manny (presure2) and I put in an oil cooler today. I know it is close to useless on an n/a engine but we had nothing better to do in the 95 degree heat.
my reasons why... 1 the 5s/3s have them stock (water to oil), and the euro STs have them stock (air to oil), so why not do it to mine. 2 oil is the life blood of the engine, I want to take care of it. 3 if/when I do decide to swap (probably Silvertop) it will be a nice add on. comments ? -------------------- |

ok if you do not have the relocation kit, then the adapter would go on between the filter and the block. If you do have a relocation kit, then it would still have to go between the filter and the relocation kit.
you would still want the oil to go to the filter durring cold start conditions, then when the oil reaches the 180 degrees, the valve would open and circulate the oil cooler oil through the system (cooling the oil). or you could run the adapter at the block, then you wouldn't be filtering your oil until the valve opens and reaches 180. you dig ? -------------------- |
