yeah mine would be for a 20b as well, although i have a re-speed oil filter pedestal with a -6an welded bung (if i remember the size correctly). also, are 25 row coolers really necessary? i was under the impression that dual 19 row mocals were more than enough. i guess if the space is there why not, but i cant see how i could ever heat up 50 rows of oil cooler lol. also wouldnt you trap more dirt oil between oil changes than with smaller coolers? and id think the 19's are cheaper. anyway the kit looks awesome, and ill most likely be buying a set. -Heath

Hahahaha...NO. You are officially banned from all our sales LOL.
I sure hope so! We aren't planning on goin anywhere
Airdam entrance ---> I| <--- Oil cooler haha.
So really, there's no need for ducting in this specific case. But in the pursuit of perfection (lol), I am designing my own (much better functioning and fitting) version of the OEM oil cooler ducts!
Why? I figured you'd have realized after owning an FD that two are better than one (Can you tell I'm a HARDCORE twins fan?! haha)
Of course there is. There is an optimal temp range for which you should be operating under. Too hot OR too cold is a bad idea. But you won't need to worry about either with this setup
Not a prob. I'm sure we can make sure a 20B-specific kit is available
Totally depends on your use. Besides, our philosophy is to over-engineer so you're using something that is EXCEEDS your needs/purposes, rather than making something that'll just "work."
Sounds good!
Oh and the original post has been edited to include pricing
Thanks!

As I PMed Scrub, I have another purpose earmarked for the passenger side vent. Was actually going to piece together a single 34 row kit myself (probably would only work for me, since I don't have the flip ups anymore and I will not be installing the combo lights), but a 25 row should suffice, since the only heat my FD generates is once a weekend, terrorizing the neighborhood kiddies.

hey quick question, can anyone comment on the fitment of the 99 fogs with this kit? they seem like they may hit each other. i know theyre gonna cut down on air flow defeating some of this extra cooling potential, but its a fine balance between performance and aesthetics... and aesthetics might win this round. hopefully they can coexist peacefully (like humans and fish as our president so poignantly put it )

If this won't work with the new setup, is there another location you'd recommend? I'd like to be able to use the same sensor with both setups if possible.

Scotty, The kit will retain the OEM banjo bolt and your method will work just fine. We are working on offering a CNC'd oil pedestal with additional fittings for temp/pressure sensors, but will not impede the flow of oil.
Heath, if I could get a picture of the bumper uninstalled with the lights mounted I would be able to see if it would fit.
