What is this? Oil filter cooler?
I was looking around at engine bay pics the other night and I found these two pictures. I have never seen or heard of these before, and these two pictures are the only ones I could find of them. Can some one please give me a little more information on them.
I tried searching for it on here but because I don't know what it's called exactly I couldn't find it.

Haha those are known as "beehive" oil coolers. Here is a pic of a really nice one
Cools the engine oil, and filters the oil at the same time as well. Doesn't work very well, motor runs hot. Found on 12a motors that don't have an FMOC (Front Mount Oil Cooler). I will be swapping this out with one of these
and one of these

Yeah, engine coolant runs through it and is supposed to help cool the oil and keep engine temps down. Not nearly as good as the front mount oil coolers in the other models.
