You need new hoses and a way to mount it...
I think ISC Racing has a kit to fit it...

on my 82 the oil cooler is right below the radiator, not like the one that you did. do you think a fc oil cooler will be able to get under there. i mean how much bigger is a FC oil cooler then a 82 oil cooler

i can get a FC N/A oil cooler but will i need to get new (modify) brackets to hold it under the radiator, or will the FB one work or FC. Also what about hoses are they interchangeable for FB and FC

All FC oil coolers are the same and are the same size as FB coolers.
They mount up easier because of their rearfacing,stubby mounts.The swiveling banjo bolts also make hose routing easier and eliminate the splitting issue the FB coolers had.
As FB II stated,the engine ends of the FC hoses will bolt to almost any rotary engine.The banjo cooler ends of the hoses are unique to the FC unit.The FC hoses are not immune to the common leakage issues however,so use caution when installing old factory fabric lines.
All in all,its a great mod and an easy to find part(usually)

That is a good deal. Someone needs to grab that up. You'd be hard pressed to find a cooler in that good of shape, for that price if you were looking for one....

Correction, the FC cooler is a bit longer than the FB cooler. I think it's only a inch though. Same height.
