Just for those who thinking on How to run Parallel Oil System.

Hey This is just for those who is wondering on how to run Twin Oil Cooler Parallel setup, In fact according to Mocal Oil T-Stat instruction they show 1 diagarm 1 for Parallel setup. Anyway I did this because I want to see how diffcult it is to run a Parallel setup and to my surprised it's the same as running In-Series setup, only two exrat line to T- fitting and yes I want to see if which setup will run cooler.

What were your findings on which setup runs cooler? I'm about to get a dual oil cooler install and am debating which way to go.

I found that it's much cooler than than oem setup, if that's what you asking? Also on the oem setup I have no idea when the theromstat kicks in? I would assume around 180 degree. The aftermarket oil ccoler is 25 rows not 20 so it's bigger than the oem, however I tested both with the car in my driveway around 50-60 degree and the oem oil temp stay steady at 220-225, witht the 25 row setup the oil will reached to 230 then the theromstat open and the oil temp drop to 180 degree.
Hey Andy do you need help?
