Glen,
Email it to me at greg@gfishman.com and I will post it. Also remind me which springs you want. The 800# or the 1000# or both.

Greg, I believe I just need the 1000's but send both Just in case and I will return what is not needed or can store in our mutual spring storage facility...

Ok what this is is a stock cooler with another stock cooler seam welded to it. We machined some banjo bolt type fittings so that you can mount it directly to your existing lines. We found that it cools better(for race apps) however if you remove the banjo fittings and mount one line to the inlet off one cooler and one line to the outlet of the other and just run a short loop line to make them run in series instead of parallel(ala the banjo fittings) This particular cooler can be run either way and mounts to the stock location and uses the stock fan and temp sending unit.

Great pics Glen.

Do you have a pic of the fittings in the "serial" configuration? Also, do you have any idea of cost?

Very interesting. Is it a snug fit? Guess I forgot to ask which GT2 bumper style your going with (Evo-1 Evo-2 or Street).

The seperate cooler is about 300$ and I will need to get a price on the loop line and fittings for the in series version, but it will be cheaper that the banjo bolt configuration for sure. This took a bunch of custom machining to run them in parallel. I will price it out and let You guys know. You will need to send your cooler for us to mate the two, but we will probably just do a core charge thing so You wont be w/o wheels while you await the Piggy Cooler. I will get a fabricated kit price including all fittings and loop line and post it in a couple of days. If You run it in series we just leave all of the original fittings and run the loop line off of two of them and You just screw your existing lines onto the other two. BTW it fits great, not too snug at all, just movew the fan further outboard and can be used with any nose, NB,TT,GT2 etc...

Will the banjo fitting flow enough oil? They are not really designed for high flow rates. Then again, I dont know what the flow rate of the oil system is at a given scavenge pressure?

The install is very easy BTW, just a direct bolt up where the original single cooler is now. I cant take credit for this though, heard about it from Joe Anselmo a couple of years ago for track guys who wanted to keep AC but did not want to spend big $. The factory tombstone as Robert Linton called it is a very effective cooler.
