well i think i have done a bit of a boo boo with buying an oil cooler....

i have managed to by the wider 235mm core one somehow and i think it is going to be a little too wide to fit where i wanted it to fit.

what core width has people got and where do people fit them?

thanks

I've got a full length (as opposed to the half length stubby), 13 row cooler in mine. I took pics but didn't save them properly on my phone. It's mounted down in the nice cold well in front of the driver's side wheel arch liner. If I drove my car at 4,000rpm+ (ie holding onto higher gears round corners to pull out of them, and using engine braking effectively) the oil would get up over 275 Farenheit. With my oil cooler I can do what the hell I want with it and it sits solidly on 240 Farenheit at the hottest, which is where it sat with normal driving beforehand. It didn't exceed 240 degrees even at Brunters, foot flat in 5th in the red to 146 on the clocks
