You screwed up! The dampener gets flipped. The fat end goes from the left side to the right side. Then you add a 1/4" spacer behind the dampener mounts. And the ports are to be on top. This way, your cooler will not drain every time you shut off the engine. If it drains. You end up with an air pocket in it.

Didn't screw up, just chose to do it differently. I did flip the damper so as to provide more room to mount the cooler in front of it. The thermo plate somewhat isolates the cooler and prevents drainback as it's routed through the filter, which is a Purolator that has a more robust anti-drainback system. Also, with the ports down, makes it much easier to get all of the old oil out during an oil change. With the ports up, you're leaving almost a quart of dirty oil in the cooler that you need to deal with getting out somehow. |

I've got years of Blackstone test reports that show zero effect of having that one quart left behind in the cooler.
