Anyone have an guidance on a steering wheel adapter (possibly quick release) for a sparco 345 suede wheel?

Also what oil cooler setup are most of you guys running? Do you feel it necessary to run any other coolers as well (tranny, diff etc)?

Thanks in advance.

For HPDE events trans and rear end coolers are not really needed. Although I would put synthetic fluid in the rear, the trans could also use synthetic fluid.

A power steering cooler is needed, possibly with a re-valved pump from PSC($100). Try it with just the cooler first with Redline synthetic in the system. I use this cooler, cut a hole in the fan shroud under the passenger side fan and mounted it.

The engine you are building might benefit from a cooler as it will be making some steam.

Improved racing makes an adapter that bolts above the oil filter, as far as the cooler itself look up "Long" or "stacked plate" oil coolers, use AN fittings and braided lines, get a 12-18 inch square cooler.


Personally I don't use an oil cooler, I use Royal Purple 10-40 and change it every 2 events. We run in the winter months only. Too damn hot down here to run in the summer.
