Darin, Thanks for posting, you are a great asset to us website retards.

Guys,

The oil cooler is a unit that was supposed to be used with a liquid to air
intercooler system for a mustang (can't remember the brand, procharger
maybe?) it was meant for water, but works better for oil. It is similar to a
motorcycle radiator. I had rubber lines fabricated to bolt up to the motor,
and they are hose clamped at the cooler. I am having some oil seepage, but I
think that's an easy fix. The cooler itself is mounted to the frame rail
with some hand made aluminum brackets. My oil stayed fairly cool before, I
once saw 130 on a 95 ish day, up a steep grade at sustained 100mph+. Now the
oil never goes above the first tic mark, even at high speeds in 90-100
degree weather.
My mechanic at speedlab loves doing this custom stuff, he is very excited to
figure out how to mount my Happersized Intercooler.
