Mishimoto 200* thermostatic oil cooler
#6
I'll post a pic of the final product, I agree it looks dope. I wasn't sure how I was gonna do it, I just kept Workin until I thought of that design. Took me better part of the day to complete.
fyi the sos 90* elbow oil filter relocation kit is not a plug n play with the mishimoto sandwich plate I had to file down the head of the bolt that goes through the mishimoto into the block. Took me awhile to diagnose why I was gushing oil everywhere (heart failure) ... Got it all sealed up after about 2 1/2 hrs.

Also had to tap the sandwich plate to use 1/2" NPT to a -10 AN. I prefer the NPT compared to what Mishimoto taps into it. It's like just under a half or is a half but not tapered like the NPT threads, which in my mind I would most deftly rtv them. The NPTs should be more vibration resistant, including seal good on their own. No idea why they tapped there's like they did :/

My oil cooler has been in a similar location.
Nothing like mounting a fully custom, pieced together oil cooler and cutting your bumper open at 1:30AM for a car that needs to leave for the race track at 3AM. I was supposed to "get a full night's sleep". PFFFFFFFF.
Zero leaks or re-adjustments for 2 years though.
