Hey guys. I have some questions about oil coolers.

How do I plum to the engine? I'm using a sandwich adapter for oil pressure and temp. There are two unused ports in that adapter. Can I use those for the oil cooler? One of those ports would be for the supply, but where does the return go? It's an LT1 with a Moroso pan.

My other question is are there any problems with mounting the cooler above the engine in the hood scoop? I'm planning on securin the lines to the bottom of the hood and run them down the drivers side hinge then to the engine. I can't imagine there would be any problems with the location, but I thought I'd ask in case you guys know something I don't.

I'm not going to run a thermostat for the oil. I'm just going to tape the back side of the cooler for street use.

Would something like this work? I don't think I have time to try to find a used part.

No - that one only has 3/8" ports, you need 1/2" here. Get the Canton piece, and get the Canton block adapter replacement too. The OEM block adapter is pot metal, it will crack if you hang anything on it.

Nothing fits great here, esp if headers are close. My SOP is to remote the filter.
