Introducing the Z1 Motorsports 370Z Oil Cooler Kit *Customizable*

Ron

is a 200 degree plate available?

Unfortunately not from Mocal. The only temperature currently offered from Mocal is 180 degrees for both model lines. There may be other manufacturers who offer a 200 degree opening temperature, however none that I have found have the flow characteristics or compact packaging of the Mocal unit.

The oil temps will still get hotter than 180 degrees. That temp is only what the unit will bypass the oil up to. After that, the oil will flow thru the core 100%. Are you afraid of not heating the oil fast enough or maintaining the proper oil temp? Keep in mind, the oil temp will still get warmer than 180 degrees. Its up to the oil cooler core to regulate the oil temp from there.

We had to factor in a few things when picking out the Mocal unit:

1. Proper thread pitch for the sandwich plate (M20 x 1.5mm)
2. Proper OD/ID of the oil seal O-Ring
3. Proper flow/ Matching port size for the fittings. (Most fittings at the sandwich plate acted as a bottle neck and would be the restriction point in the system. Most sandwich plates only used a 1/2 NPT fittings or SMALLER. This is counter intuitive when you consider we are using a -10 AN line)
4. Price - some sandwich plates were ridiculously priced
5. Overall dimensions - Some were VERY tall, while others were so wide that they would actually hit the alternator or would cause poor fitting location.
