Hello,
Im in the process of installing the front oil cooler in my car. The lines run back thru the drivers foot well then down under the left rocker cover. My question is, once you get past the jack post and you want to have the lines turn towards the engine bay, what route do you take with them? Do you just come around the frame or do you cut another hole around the jack post to gain access to the engine bay? Using the heater duct isnt an option. I am using a standard 914-6 oil tank A pix would help out. Cheers |

Here are the picts of mine the return(from engine to tank) runs under the long and there are two bosses must drill out) in the engine bay for the lines out? hope this helps? Ok I took a stab at this today. What I found was passing the lines into the fender well in front of the original oil tank I ran into a problem. I found the once they pass thru they must turn a sharp angle downwards. The radius was so small I fear they will KINK when it gets hot. How did you get around this? Did you put 90 deg fittings in the fender well? cheers |
