I am going to install my 25 row Earls oil cooler over the 4th of july and I am looking for some more ideas, tip and tricks.
I plan on using a wafer adapter to keep my filter in the stock location. I will also install a thermostat and a fan. I will most likely mount it under the rear trunk. I'd like to see some pictures of what others have done. Experinces on the wafer adapter vs relocating the oil filter and what thermostats are being used. I've seen the Pelican Article. thanks -Rob |

Here's my set-up: Full flow oil, remote filter, by-pass thermostat and simple oil cooler. It all sits on the right side of the transmission since the left side is taken up by the Tangerine exhaust. It's only for street use but I've never seen the oil temperature exceed 2/3 scale on the gauge. That was on a 90+ degree day, stop & go traffic. It's never exceeded half-scale under full load pulling steep hills on the same 90 degree day. The next step would be to add a draw through fan if I needed to. Normally the oil temp gauge runs well below the middle.
