Gary I have the kit on my workbench (Ebay 25 row and inline 180 degree). the only thing that's unclear is how to tie it into the OE oil cooler, or is it best to just get another 25 row and replace both at the same time.?

I documented this in my build thread on pages 3 and 4. I use an external 180 degree thermostat and ran the stock oil cooler in series with the Setrab cooler.

It'll be out on track this weekend with the std setup, but air temps in the 50s should mean I am fine for this one outing. |
