Subject:Re: I shared "Oil Cooler Vanagon Air Cooled" with you in OneDrive

I wish I add this before I bought all my cooling parts already ! ;-)

Some stuff are not clear from the pictures .
Where did you mount the cooler ?  , front vehicle ?
Why would you use copper over PTFE braid line ? , the copper hose goes 
straight on the top of the exhaust heat area. It seems to me that PTFE 
line would be better "heat" shield in that part of the engine.

I love the fact that you don't use the sandwich plate by bypassing the 
original cooler . It too late for me to change the design but I may do 
it to my next engine rebuild. Do you know the part of the bypass device ?

Also , it seems that people are using AN10 hose and I bought 16" of AN8 
(I want to mount my cooler in the front) . Do you think AN8 is too small ?

Thanks for any advise Dennis.
