		Next oil change is looming and I may aswell fit the mocal oil cooler
 Guna need smaller oil filter though.....so a renault fits supposedly?
 
 Which one?! And is it the same pressure rating?! Disadvantages?? I change oil n filter every 5K so it being  a smaller filter dont bother me too much

why is it stupid advice when there's plenty of space for the standard filter on top of an oil cooler takeoff AND the heat exchanger?

		So you guys who know it all are running 2.1 12v blocks? 
And you guys have the radiator mounted futher back too?
 
And you guys would be running the thicker 2.1 oil/coolant heat exchanger?
 
And I assume you guys have a sandwich plate for oil temp and pressure take off too????
 
No? Oh ok, yeah, I'll get off my little pony now!
