water to oil cooler to front mount oil cooler

Hey guys i have been searching for this, but cant seem to find it.
I dont like the water to oil and want to switch to regular oil cooler. its an 84 12a can i just buy an end and front plate and the oil cooler plus lines and just do a straight switch over or is there a difference in the two engines?

You're welcome. The only difference in the engines is the coolant line out the rear iron. No need to change it.

what do you mean no need to change the coolant line in the rear iron?
are you talking about the antifreeze lines or oil line in the rear iron, kinda confused.

The difference between the beehive and fmoc engines is the beehive engine has a teed coolant line coming off of the rear iron.. That's covered in my write up.
