Hi All,

 

With a white flash and a bang Markie has had another idea!!!

 

Would it be possible to take two stock engine oil coolers and run them in tandem?

 

What do ya reckon guys?

 

C'mon you mighty Z brains give it your best shot, give it to me straight!!!!

 

All the best,

 

Mark

Mark, the oilcooling-system on the Zed is basically a joke...have you ever felt the cooler after thrashing the car ?

You're lucky if it is even gets slightly warm ..

even if you'd fit a cooler of a truck it wouldn't really help.

This because the oilcooler is pressure operated and the cooler is bypassed if the oilpressure is below a certain level (eg. during idle/low revs/low pressure in general)

It would probably be much better to make it temperature operated (like most normal oilcooler-systems)

Thanks Eric,

 

I presume it would be too complicated to make the oil cooler temp operated?

 

What do you think of electrical fans to replace the mechanical one, I haven't really seen anything positive to say about them?

 

Mark

I don't think any of the fans blow on the oil cooler, that relies on the draft from the movement of the car.

I'm not that dim Andy!

 

LOL

Cos of that remark you owe me a beer on Sunday!!!!

You mean electric fan(s) for the radiator ?

 

Don't even get me started on that one ! LOL

the stock fan almost has twice the flow capacity of the best electric fan money can buy
