that's it . nice install. the oil cooler is a heater and cooler it heats the oil up during warm up and cools it when its working hard. oil will usually run a few degrees hotter than coolant so when up to temp it a cooler.
guys just remember in the spring you cant block the flow it all of the water that cools the engine. im running a 5/8 heater core and I never hear the cooling fan running while the heat is on but im betting when the 70 deg weather comes I will have to run a buy pass or just unhook it. mine is in the cab on the wall between the two seats so I will probably take it out for the summer.

Post a few pics spifyd. I was thinking of mounting mine there. Seems it would be much easier since the hoses would be shorter and no need for vents just let it blow straight out.

If you have a smartphone you can use the tapatalk app. I use it to view this forum and it makes uploading pictures easy you just can't attach a comment with the picture like you can online.
