best oil cooler for 79 turbo 3.3
Looking to replace the loop oil cooler on a 79 3.3 turbo.
What is the best aftermarket cooler set-up without replacing the front valence to install a front mounted system? What type of oil temps to expect with this system under DE event conditions? |

You could buy a Setrab cooler and fit it in the RF Fender well, probably just have to change out some fittings, and of course come up with some new mount points.

I use a dual pass Fluidyne cooler mounted in the passenger's side wheel well. I also ran -12 line throught the stock bumper to the driver's side and installed a single pass Fluidyne cooler. Together, they are more than enough - the passenger side dual pass by itself is enough for street use if properly plumbed and "sealed" (forcing air to pass through it). They also add about 3 qts to the oil capacity.

DonE,
