? upgrading to R1 dual oil-coolers
I have a 1993 Touring FD, and have purchased a set ofused R1 dual-oil coolers with lines & mounts.
Other than the proper ducting, their mounts, and a pair of copper washers, is there anything else I should changeout while installing ?
Should I remove my existing driver's side oil-cooler or just attach the appropriate lines to hook-up the passenger side oil-cooler ?
Any other caveats, or gotchas ?
TIA,
:-) neil

No need to replace anything. Just mount the passenger cooler and duct, swap the R1 oil line onto the front cover and mount the hardlines between the coolers. The hardlines are the trickiest part as you have to fish them across the front end. I don't recall having to remove anything major to get them in.
