    Complete oil cooler kit?

    Sorry if this has been answered before, I could not find the answer I wanted so figured I would ask it more specifically:

    Is there a complete kit for the oil cooler anywhere? Everything needed?

    Looks like there are several piece here and piece there...

    Maybe I'm overlooking it but I imagined there would be a vendor that had everything needed in a complete kit?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks

    Michael

    Even if you get the FF kit, you'll still need a thermostat to prevent your oil from getting too cool: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ear-502erl

    One option if you really don't NEED and oil cooler and have power steering, is to cool the power steering. It gives you the look and usefulness for a street, or autocross car.
    That is a few hundred $$$ that I will end up spending at some point.

    I believe that Gordon Levy sells a complete kit.

    Here is another plug for Gordon at Levy Racing (see sponsored vendors). He makes a Radiator that incorporates an oil cooler. The radiator is bigger than standard for better engine cooling and the hot radiator fluid warms up the engine oil (don't have to worry about the oil being too cool) and then cools the oil when it gets too hot. Keeps the oil temp just right.

    Check out his web site. He will be glad to answer any questions.
