External oil cooler

Post by justinshelton »

Does anyone have an external oil cooler on their 411 or 412? Is it worth having? Where did you mount the little radiator? Just another thing that worries me as I get ready for the cross-country drive!

Thanks,

Justin

Its really not necessary on the type 4 cars unless you have made serious mods to the engine. Just check timing, fuel mixture , ductwork and valves. Which engine is it and is it stock? Ray

If not necessary I won't add it . . . I sure have other things I can spend money on on that car!
