Make up a solid model out of a chunk of foam or fold it up from cardboard and
tape.
Just to see how it would fit.

If you can find a stock oil cooler at a junk yard, they work fine, but are
long and narrow. Not the ideal shape for some installations. I have three
Setrabs, but I don't know what the P/N is. The biggest they made at the time. The
picture quality is poor, but you get the idea.
