I dont even have my 370 yet, but am likely going to do this mod. Was wondering if you used the same mock bracket up top as at the bottom and is there a place to mount the top, such as the lower composite piece used?....and does this mounting setup leave a space between the oil cooler and the rad, or do they touch, in which case I would need some rubber in between?

Thanks!!

Rob

Would there be a difference between using -8 lines instead of -10? I installed everything in the DIY except that I used smaller lines. In 105 degree F heat, it averaged a little below 220. Does that sound right? It never went over that while I was pushing it a little bit here and there.

New update:
I think it is fine. I have been cruising around and the temparture is at 190 in 105 F degree weather.
