I have a real quick question for the brain trust and I'm hoping I get enough traffic in here that I don't need to make a whole new thread for this.

At RR7, I got a pair of CSF fender-mount oil coolers. (crazy good deal)
The traditional method of mounting those coolers is in opposed fenders, but I was wondering if I can stack them and run them in the stock location. (still in series)

The reasoning behind this query is four-fold.
1. I am averse to nilly-willy dropping $500-1500 in hoses/lines to plumb across the car.
2. I am averse to adding extra weight to the car. (the aforementioned, and possibly superfluous, lines & fittings)
3. The front right corner is the lightest corner in the car. Doubling the cooler in that corner would add weight in the exact correct place.
4. The car is already set up to accomodate one cooler in that corner. Those same resources would not need to be duplicated if both coolers are installed (literally) together. (air inlets and a cooler fan and whatnot)

PLEASE DISCUSS. I emplore thee.
