Oil Cooler For Dc2r

[tegstar83]

Also how can u tell if its a sandwich plate type cooler.
Are any of these sandwich type??

For Dc2 I don't think you need more than 10 rows, otherwise the car will be too cold ( specially for daily driving) unless the cooler comes with thermoswitch sandwish plate. I think all sandwish plate can fit the oil cooler hose as long as the thread of the plate fits the thread of the hoses. And when you buy some after market oil cooler which is no make for Dc2, make sure those hoses are long enough

[tegstar83]

But Ive also heard that if ur hoses are too long/thick that u will lose oil presure, how do u make sure all ur pressueres are right, also what brand coolers come with a thermoswitch and how much does a good cooler cost??
Also whats the difference between a sandwich cooler and the other?? ( not sure what its called) Also should you fit an Oil pressure gauge at the same time?

Trust makes an oil cooler for DC2, so I think the oil pressuere should be ok then. This kits come with the sandwish plate so you don't have to buy one. It is a good idea to fit an oil and temp gauage at the same time.

$580 is great for trust. kit or just cooler?

[whtdc2]

it's a whole kits including all the hoses and the sandwish plate

[tegstar83]

Yeah but what is the sandwich plate, like what does it do??

[Jim80y]

Sandwich plate attaches to engine block and oil flows through sandwich plate to lines to the cooler back through lines back to sandwich plate back to engine block

[tegstar83]

ohh ok, but does the cooler have to be attached to the block?
How is this done to u drill holes or something??
