Yep, I agree with the use of a extra filter with a race car. Not too many 6's blow on the street though. The oil comes out of the engine on the right side and depending on your cooler, your lines may exit on the right side as well. Personally, I like the thermostat as close to the engine discharge point as possible to quickly respond to engine temps, so I mounted the thermostat there. I just feel it responds better there. Maybe I worry too much. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

Mounting it up front works for a race car since they rarely do stop and go driving and are open most of the time. It is for sure easier to mount the thermostat up front and avoid additional plumbing in the back.

Bottom line is there are 50 different ways to plumb them depending on the use and the hardware used. I only suggest considering the application and hardware before using a generic picture. The picture gives a great overview of the theory. There is nothing wrong with the pic, but there just might be better alternatives depending on the application and was the point I was trying to make.......

Lucky you. Every once in a while I look out my window to see a heron standing on the edge of my pond...watching my koi. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Haven't seen it in a while though. I think something may have happened to him (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

OK, OK... we all officially hate you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Your car sucks and so does your view. I'll bet you married a troll as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif)

Marv, all in jest of course. Looking great. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

I can't wait until this thing is fired up.

The photo above of the front wheel reminds me of a funny car front end, the body is so low over the tire. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I think your car looks great. This thread has been really enjoyable. More photos, please. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Yeah, it looks wicked in person, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) but really there are no torsen bars in the front suspension right now. I am probably gonna run it pretty low.
