DON'T REMOVE THE STOCK COOLER
use the oil filter adapter from bus boys and get the oil stat while your at
it. I have many engine out there right now that have there set up and are
very pleased. The oil cooler is best placed above the trany to prevent road
damage and this location provide ample air circulation to keep the oil temps
at 180f on a hot summer day.
