914/6 conversion external oil cooler

[bcheney]

I am converting my 75 914 to a six. Motor is 2.4 with Weber 40's. Haven't decided on cams but it will be either "T" or "E" spec. Live in Florida and need to install an external oil cooler. Don't want to go with a front trunk mounted type. Read about a nice external set up in a car featured in the Oct. 2006 issue of Excellence page 100. It is a dual cooler system mounted under the rear trunk on either side of the tranny with electric fans. Does anyone have experience with selecting the type of cooler and fan needed for this set up? Don't think I would need the dual set up as the car featured had a 3.6 liter motor!! Would love to have pictures diagrams or any guidance.

Check the 914 Tech Articles section of this very website; one of the articles by John Rogers shows his under-trunk-floor cooler setup.
