Pretty sure it isn't but will never know unless I ask! Is the oil cooler directional? Also, does anyone have a picture of what the bracket looks like? I'm looking to make something but not sure what to bolt it to on the engine, keeping in mind I have a strainer on order.. http://s258.photobucket.com/user/graham22k/media/utf-8BSU1BRzA0MzcuanBn_zps5dcbca4e.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  ------------- '82 Ski Tique |

| Mine is same as the coil bracket and I bolted it to the outside bolt hole on the back of the head. Not sure thats right, but it works. Mine came with a twisted coil bracket and didn't have enough hose to reach a suitable spot, I just got a new straight bracket and added enough hose to get it to the closest place. |

The oil flow direction needs to be opposite to the water flow direction. I hope this makes sense  ------------- “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” Ben Franklin |

Grahan, Chris is correct. The direction of flow maintains the max delta T keeping the efficiency of heat transfer high. So, you will want to feel the oil cooler from the starboard side per your picture. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |
