FC oil cooler in FB
When I install the FC oil cooler, do I use FC lines and fittings or FB lines and fittings?
Do I need to switch the thermal pellet or bypass valve inside the FC oil cooler with one from an SA?
Is the FC oil cooler closer in length to the SE oil cooler or the SA oil cooler?
Instead of using the stock fittings and banjo bolts, is it possible to use other fittings, such as those on Mazdatrix's website?
Finally, if anyone has done this on their FB, please let me know how the installation went and how it runs with the new cooler. Thanks.

Airflow is my life
I made my own mounts for the cooler and put it in front of the rad. SO consequently I had to make my own lines. Look at RMD's post on his cooler install for some info on my install. Works great so far.
PM me with your email addy if you want to see pics.

Do I have to have pics hosted on the net to display them here? Can they be put up directly (hosted) on here? I'd like to put up pics of my FC cooler in my FB.

Dude..... the fact that you install a 2nd Gen oil cooler in your car does not mean you need to install a 2nd gen pedestal.
