I could swear I've seen a car or two here that has a chrome front bumper that has been opened up for the oil cooler inlet for a trunk mounted cooler.
Anyone have photos or details they can share about it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) Kev |

There are many ways to mount a cooler other than in the front.
Porsche mounted the A/C condenser flat under the front trunk of the car. This should work for an oil cooler too! It had a screen and bar to protect it from being smacked into a parking bumper and protect it from road debris. I always wanted to try this method. Several cars have the cooler mounted to the underside of the rear trunk with a fan or with fans in case of multiple coolers and seem to do quite well. Mine is mounted in the trunk with a fan on top and works. One was pictured mounted to the engine lid grill. While purists can claim this will overheat the engine, I would seriously doubt that fact. Oh well .... let the debate continue .......... |
