FC oil cooler install with lines

had no oil cooler on this car, so decided i should but the fc one in since i had a few laying around. had to cut one fo the radiator brackets a bit to fit the lines. welded new brackets to mount the oil cooler. had to reshape the rear iron oil line a bit for it to clear the motor mount and to have the right angle for the oil cooler.

here are some pics

dont be fooled by the t2 lower intake, there is not turbo! this is gonna be NA, atlest for now. i dont have plans to turbo this car as i would have to upgrade many more things. this is just for a daily driver for now.

i dont think it will get a custom manifold, this is a 4 port engine with t2 irons and i think gsl-se rotors. i did not build this motor so i am actaully not really sure of whats inside. what i do know is that its a half bridge and if it doesnt make 200whp i will be very sad :-\
