Post Can't find oil cooler duct, run without?

I have searched high and low for my oil cooler duct and can't find it. Anyone think running without it is a bad idea?

The oil cooler duct is pretty cheap (~$12). Might as well replace it.

I may make one out of sheet metal... that way it will match the intercooler duct. Ah well.... I take it everyone thinks it should be in there? I really can't recall the shape at the moment.

im with kraut! your car is probably the only car with a salvage title i would want, only because of the time you put into it.

you havent used a hacksaw yet, dont start now.
