I've got 3 new Setrab tube coolers, they have never been installed. These are coolant to oil heat exchangers and work extremely well. I've used the largest model (TOC-300) of this product line in several 4th gen cars - CMC, AI, AIX and SU, including Ken Kurtz monster 650rwhp LS3 TA.
The tube cooler is plumbed in line with the radiator cool side hose, no need for bulky ductwork or fans. I can fab a bracket that mounts the cooler parallel to the front swaybar. I've got 2 of the TOC-200, and 1 of the TOC-150. They appear to be out of production, the only hit that Google returns is a price list from Baker Precision, they charged $343 for the 200 and $331 for the 150. http://bakerprecision.com/setrab1.htm I'll let them go for The optional M22 to -12AN adapters (I've got 8 of them) are $9ea - other sizes are available from Improved Racing.

Alan, how well would you think this works on a DD/Autocross car that can see ambient temps between 40* to 95*? Meaning would this be TOO efficient?
I assume this would be best with a inline thermostat similar to the Mocal you are selling as well. I like the idea of mounting this on the radiator support. Plumb one side from the radiator cold outlet at bottom conrer of radiator then outlet of this right to the WP thermostat. EDIT: Using one of these with no external thermostat may be better to heat the oil when it's cold and keep oil cool when it's hot out? This post has been edited by Smitty2919: Aug 9 2016, 03:39 PM |
