Haha, dude you can type in the picture posts! Is that an RX-7 oil cooler? Do you track it? I thought Savington was beating the crap out of his car on track with his RX-7 oil cooler, no ducting, and still seeing temperatures that were almost too cold.

Find me a Torsen! I'm so jealous. I have a 1.8 diff, but its an open one. I blew my last 1.6 one up and found mine cheap with everything I needed. All I need are Torsen innards I'm pretty sure.

oil cooler hooked up with sandwich plate, i/c finally together, cost a whole 55 dollars...
Cops in and wired gonna look for some real connectors now i just don't feel safe with those pins, engine bay lost some weight and gained some cooling!!! Barn doors will be gone soon, coolant reroute, more tuning, and next summer (if she lasts till then) a nice built engine!!
