I appreciate you keeping an eye out for me but I found a panel at 914 LTD and Brad shipped it out this morning to Scotty.

Now I really need a pair of NOS front fenders......

Looking for opinions.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Scott and I were talking today and he asked me if I had plans for an oil cooler for my car. I told him I really did not want to have an in-trunk cooler like the GT cars have. I am leaning towards a 911 style trombone cooler in one of the front fenders with the GT (PMB) oil line kits (they look so very nice) to get the oil up there.

But to be honest, I really do not know if that would do the job or not. Please recall I have an '89 stock 3.2 going in the car and the car will not be tracked/auto crossed. It will be street driven.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, East Bay to be more specific, and in the summer, 100 degrees is not uncommon. So if you have an (knowledgable (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)) opinion, please chime in so I hopefully make the correct choice.

I really do not want to cut the body up to accommodate a cooler. Especially after we sourced a correct front panel for the car - thank you Brad at 9-1-4 LTD (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

OK so who is the A-hole that messed with the site somehow so that when we type 9-1-4 it changes it to X19?

Joe at Series 9 did some under body coolers on madswedes car. He lives in AZ so I imagine its a pretty good setup.

Rich Johnson has a contact for under rear trunk coolers too. He's from Texas and hasn't had issues on his hot 3.0.

I'm going this route unless someone comes up with another good idea...engine lid mount is an option too, but might not be enough on it's own.

Engine lid would be a no-go with the Motronic injection. Also, and this might sound dumb, but I really like the way the underside of our cars look and I do not want to add stuff to detract from the stock-ish look. That's why I keep thinking the trombone or a small oil cooler in the front fender well is the best option so far.

I've got the dash stored up high on a shelf and haven't pulled it out to check yet, but I'm pretty sure I recall the numbers being on it

Our 914's don't lend themselves to oil coolers in the front fender like 911's. And even if you made it work, you would be making a bunch of extra holes and running lines up the front. You will see that a lot more than coolers mounted under the car. Plus under the car mounting could be made easily reversible in the future. Maybe a pair of small coolers behind the fog light grills but it's still a lot of time, money and bodywork for a non optimal solution.

My choice (for your car) would be a pair of small coolers mounted to either side of the trans with auxillary fans mounted on them to move air when additional cooling is needed.

I wouldn't. There's nothing like a cooler at the very front of the car.

Not mine. Two coolers under the car with the heat of the exhaust, sitting in one of those famous I-5 traffic jams. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Is there the same amount of heat in that area when heat exchangers are run?

I have no doubt the front is best. It's what I'm doing with mine. But Michael wants a stock look so get off your high horse unicorn and figure out a way to make it work.
