I didn't realize it until I looked at my haynes manual but I am mounting my FC oil cooler on upside down compared to how my FC came. Similar to this picture. I ahve to mount it this way due to the way that I mounted my radiator. Will I have any flow issues with mounting the my oil cooler this way and using the top port(side) as the inlet and the bottom port as the outlet? I don't see any issues with this other than the thermostat possibly causing one.

 

maybe lower coolant temps higher oil temps? as long as u have the undertray on i dont see a problem. i assume the car is stock?

 

It is Ls1 swapped. I am plumbing an accusump and want to add my oil cooler at the same time. I think it will work fine plumbing the oil cooler just like Mazda did.

 

yeah the undertray is the key no mater what maybe get a snazzy aluminium one

 

Does anyone make an undertray for the FC? I have never seen an aftermarket one before. I do have a stock plastic one but it is a little beat up.

 

not really better to make one out of aluminium use the stock one as a template or wing it make ur own mounts not to hard just make sure the air isnt trapped

 

It will blow up
