thank you

with 9 quarts of oil in new england do you really need one ? -- some folks remove them to make room for a larger heat exchanger. IMO you dont need one unless you are running cross country at super sonic speeds

here is one solution,, the other would be to fab your own hose to replace the lower oil cooler,, there is still a secondary cooler with a fan on it... search around and let us know what you decide on
