Well.. I got sent on a two week work trip up to the Bay Area and while I was gone my pops installed the new Oil Cooler Kit.
It looks cool and, with the install location, should keep our oil temp down which will keep our oil pressure up.
He side mounted it so it would be out of the way of the motor if we needed to do a swap, and to protect it from debris that could kick up if anyone goes off track.
He made some high tech mods to radiator cowling giving it some air flow as well.
The total cost of this add on was $200. Kinda funny for what is supposed to be a $500 car, but hey, we were given a $5 residual so with everything we are adding on we are still bellow $500. None of this makes our car any faster.. We are just trying to help the car survive a full 24 hour race in the summer heat.
Residual 3/28/2012 $5.00
Oil Cooler Kit $140.00
Alternator $75.00
Alternator bracket and belt $25.00
larger belt $17.00
Oil cooler and fittings $60.00
Lemons Value $322.00
