Oil Cooler Fitment

[Pete&Matt]

We need to fit an oil cooler in the Stylus. Where can you squeeze them in? have through of in-front of the rad? what kind of mountings do you use? we have a 13 row Mocal cooler.

Cheers

Remind me what your engine spec' is Pete . Neither I nor Tim run one . His spec' is 225bhp , mine 200bhp and get plenty of GGGG's on track. If I fitted a cooler it would be mounted just behind the 'grill' with a decent gap between it and the radiator . Just make the brackets up yourself to go across from A frame to A frame preferably in alloy tube , say 13 to 15 mm.

rob,

its a toyota 4age 1600, first generation lump. it had a cooler as standard from the corrolla, and so the sump has the inlet and the filter has the outlet already to go. I will probally put a thermostat in-line so it doesnt over-cool the oil.

cheers

My recollection is that if you fit any rads one in front of the other they should be very close so as not to allow the air to stall between them and you want the oil and air to be similar temps anyway(when the engine is hot)
