So i plan on installing an air to oil cooler. And i would still like to have the water to oil cooler/heater so it still warms up quickly. But i'm unsure of the thread size so that i can purchase a spin on adapter. I plan on installing a remote mount oil filter too because the filter is already close to the radiator as it is. I also plan on installing a thermostat so the air to oil cooler only circulates all the oil above 180.

I'm also thinking about a remote mount oil filter, it would make life so much easier

i have both oil coolers mounted.
a adapter plate under the stock cooler and the filter.
only issue was that i have to find a oil filter that was half the height of the stock one...
problem solved and now the oil warms quickly and maintains the temp. more steady

I believe it is the same size as a Ford FL1a filter. The oil cooler adapter I have has a built in thermostat. I didn't have the clearance for the stock cooler in the stock location in my application(Rover), but I put it in up by the remote filter in case I ever want to try pumping water through it for a hot shower while camping.
