yeah...where is the second cooler?

I run two on my racecar. They are plumbed in parallel. On sits above the round tube crossmember and the other sits below and in front of the round tube crossmember. Works great - no oil pressure loss.

Do you use the stock first gen coolers? I hear they are great for group b-ish rallying (dual first or second gens)
