Front oil cooler installation help!

[Tim Boyer]

Hi,
Does anyone have a photo or schmattic that shows the plumbing at the tank end Up to the front cooler. I am particularly interested in the placement of the hard lines under the car and through the wheel wells!
I had step by step instructions but now cannot find them!
Thanks for any help,
Tim

Yeap, it is a twisted mess. I will do my very best to recall the pipe set up:

The hardlines running down from the thermostat, you would assume that is how it should be in the front wheel well outside on the outside but, when it goes up the fender it needs to cross and switch places, strange I know.

Do a mock set up and you will see what I mean, and you will see the flex hoses will fit right in place.

Hope this gives you an idea until someone actually post a diagram.

I still need to install my elephant racing ribbed hardline, oh the joy.

Speak to Eric- quite knowledgeable. Pretty good stuff IMO.

What year is the car? What front bumper are you going to run? Do you already have the cooler?

I can't help you with the lines, but perhaps some of the pics from my cooler install will help. The link is in my signature. Unfortunately, I need to update the sig since I no longer have the car, but hopefully the write-up will provide some insight.
