Rusty, On the other list someone posted the size of the new oil
cooler in the RX-8. More toward square than the -7 cooler, I seem to recall
it was 7 X 10 X 2 (LWT). Now if Mazda isn't too proud of them, it
might offer you another alternative.

Thanks Rick. That's pretty
close to the same as the 3rd gen coolers, and I'm sure Mazda IS proud of them
:-)
I just ordered a
Setrab 650 with AN-12 fittings from C&R Racing. They can get
one in a day from their supplier, and have it to me by the weekend.
BTW- they asked what I was putting it in, and I told them they probably didn't
want to know. I asked if there was any answer I could give that would
prevent him from selling it to me, and he said no, so I told him. They
were totally cool with the idea of selling parts for airplanes, and he said they
had made plenty of airplane radiators. In other words, they seem to be
good guys :-)
Hopefully, the hardest
part about mounting the new cooler will be sneaking out of the house before my
wife catches me (I'm supposed to be resting a torn tendon in my left
elbow).
Rusty (not following Dr's
advice- sorry David <g>)
