Hack saw and a file for the sharp edges.

couldn't you have left the original heat exchanger in then??? i would imagine both systems would be greatly beneficial.

possibly could have but I But I wont really be needing it. I have block heater on it that will be plugged in to keep it warm so cold starts wont be a problem. And I am not real comfortable with coolant based oil or transmission coolers. I know they used them stock but it seems that they would be a very easy point for catastrophic failure.
