Does the 34 row oil cooler used with the RE kit fit without interfering with the pop-up lights? And I assume it's the Earl's "wide" cooler 13" x 10.5"

From what I've heard no interference with the lights. Comes close though and it does use the "wide" coolers.

The first thread is from Trevor and his install, other threads are related comments....as you can see, I think the 34-rows are too big for any kind of Cali weather driving, including track use.

Thanks, I've seen those threads and I do agree the duel 34 row is over kill. But I'm going the road less traveled, a ducted single 34 row. The max oil temp I've seen on the track has been about 230, high but not excessive. But I'm still inexperienced and not pushing the car that hard ( yet ). I've also shied away from the real hot days.(I'm a wimp) But I have seen oil temps above 230 while having some fun on my faorite mountain roads. So I didn't see any reason for the expense of two coolers and associated fittings in my case. Also there may be some small advantage to not running oil through all that plumbing.
