hey guys i just need to know if anyone has a write up on how to install a front mount oil cooler sence my stock oil cooler got destroyed when my tranny blew up. just need to know how to get one to work if any one can hel that would be great thanks!!

 

good question. i would like to know about a front mount oil cooler as well.

 

open your eyes there is a thread about it

 

i wont just tell u there is one around

here u go

lol thanks thats accully how i thought to do it just wasnt sure

 

after reading that thread it looks like there isnt really a reason to go front mount. i`ll save myself the $300.

 

there is plenty of reasons to go front mount you just dont see it

 

Why not just replace the OEM oil cooler?

 

duh thats what a front mount does

 

mr belvedere, is it really nessecary to be such a dick? I mean I can see being rude for not searching, but the rest was really unnessecary IMO

 

im not being a dick or being rude

 

the oem oil cooler doesnt really cool the oil very good. and i dont have the money to buy a oem oil cool they arnt very cheap. i can get a hayden front mount oil cooler faily cheap. and the front mount will allow air to constantly be going over it insted of the coolent thats like 180 degrees. to me it just seems like it would be more efficent. but u some people can just look at it diffrently. its just all up to want u would rather do.

o and rico thanks alot for finding that write up for me!

 

how did your trans blowing ruin the oil cooler?

 

good god, you searched real hard didn't you?

 

not $300 worth of reason. Honestly i would go spend money on a better radiator to cool my motor and oil all in one whack.

 

good luck with that and it will be more then 300 bones

 

well of course, i think it was around $500 but it would also cool the motor and oil not just one or the other

 

the reverse gear shot out of the top and just managed to hit the oil cooler and put a huge hole in it.

Here is some pic of the damage

 

ouch

 

that is cool

 

quit being a bitch, that thing just needs some superglue

on a side note, i just put a new trans in my car, i got an extra non-lsd one for sale cheap

 

lol yea some JB weild would do the job and thank for the offer man but i just bought a brand new on from some guy that had alot of saturn ion reldine parts new for 600 with a warrente

 

good deal then cause you sure wouldn't get a warranty with mine, but i would've sold it to you for about $200+ actual shipping

 

damn thats a good deal im sure someone will ****** that one up

 

contact bolus he has an relocated oil cooler on his atom. Iirc the kit will work fine on the balt with a few mods
