Default oil cooler?

hey guys
i need to buy an oil cooler for the upcomin summer. my big cube motor runs the oil at a high of 265* when sitting in traffic on a 100*+ day. not that i am stuck in those situations all the time, i just want the peace of mind that i have an oil cooler....

i have the block adapter to the oi filter and i have the SS lines with -10 AN female fittings. now i need l the cooler with the -10 male fittings. the cooler would fit behind the condensor (i assume) so where can i buy something like that??? i'd like to stay under the 100 range if possible.

thanks guys!
Aj

Goes in front of the condenser.

Go talk to DRM Motorsports They can set you right up.

265* is not bad at all. Think mine is a Setrab



Trans cooler left, oil cooler right

COOL.funny you mentioned DRM... those guys are my local shop. randy and doug know me and my car QUITE well... LOL... i actually talked with Randy today about the A4 to MN6 swap...totoally slipped my mind to ask him about the cooler setup!

AU N AGL: that is a neat setup! i already have a tranny cooler, its the size of the damn condensor! LOL... going to be tough to fit them in there. thanks for the idea though!
