#138031, "Where did you guys mount your oil cooler?"
I'm putting some finishing touches on my car and one last thing I have to do is put an oil cooler on it. I have ac, ps, and am turbo. I was going to mount it behind my Hahn fmic on the ac condenser. So it would be mounted on the front of the ac condenser and in front of my Fluidyne radiator, behind the Hahn fmic. The cooler Size is 3/4 inch x 7-1/2 inch x 12-1/2 inch. Would I have any issue with cooling if I have it mounted there? It seems that is my only option and wanted to know what you guys thoughts were before mounting it.

That's where I was originally wanting to mount it, but it just doesn't look like there's any room. You are referring to the passenger side correct? I still have ac so it's pretty dang crowded over there.

I too put mine behind the passenger side bumper opening. The cooler I used is about 7.5"x9.5" and it sits behind there with room to spare but I don't have my evap system there anymore.

I put a brazed plate oil cooler in the driver's side scoop:
The A/C condenser is in the passenger's side scoop:
I had to put the radiator where the stock A/C condenser was and the downpipe where the stock radiator was. Fans were eventually put where the hood latch was. Hood latch is behind the driver's headlight now. Something about a snowball effect.
