Oil cooler kit ???
« on: March 14, 2007, 10:44:55 am »
Does anyone make a good quality oil cooler kit for our engines? I want to get rid of all the problems associated with the oil/water unit on it originally.
I'd rather not use the fleebay units, as they are very generic, and often, very poor quality.

Autotech makes a real high quality kit, I know they are expensive, but if you watch  the classifieds in vortex under all the different chassis areas you can run into a used one . I got a new one from someone who gave up on a project.

I still have a few of the rare original vw euro gti oil cooler setups minus the oil cooler.  It has the thermostat build into the housing
