One of the changes I am planning for my Sports is an engine oil cooler. I'm considering the 13 row Kenlowe kit. Anyone used this in an Ultima? Any advice on this or other coolers would be much appreciated.

I don't know the calcs required but believe you will need a 25 row 235mm wide to cope with a Chevy engine.
I am also going to fit an oil stat so the cooler is not in circuit until the oil is up to temperature.

Thanks for the feedback

The Kenlowe is 13 rows by 300m. They do a 16 row 300mm so that might be a better bet.

A thermostat valve can be specified as an option, which I intend to use.
