Most excellent > indeed. I never thought to look at them for oil coolers though. Rusty, How did that radiator fit? I see a few choices on them on and off, and some brands are said to fit poorly and need lots of mods. Was it a slip in? Here in TX I might need 2 of them (wife's car too)...btw, do you have a water temp gauge, and if so, how much did the new radiator lower it? I have a temp gauge with the sensor installed facing out the front of the water pump neck at the flat spot. PS. I got a couple FD oil coolers off ebay, cleaned them up, straightened the fins, did a repaint, had them flushed, and installed mesh screen in front of them at the opening to help keep that damage to a minimum!! I used a tranny cooler in the right side and now have 2 just like the r1/r2 models. And I want to let people know there is an outfit that makes a 2 oil cooler mod for single cooler FDs that you can get if you are really interested (Crooked Willow Racing). [Marc Wiese]
