 but I'd probably just find a shop that makes hydraulic hoses and just get custom hoses made up with the right fittings on each end.

Thought I would share a picture of the connections on the CSF auto radiator.
  There are a couple ways you could do this but we keep these in stock. We also have our Z1 oil cooler kits if you wanted a standalone cooler. This option is very similar to what Nissan added on later models but a little different because you are running the oil to the coolant instead of coolant to the oil. |

Chuck, thanks for the pictures! I assume the trans-cooler ports, which I want to use for oil cooling, are the two smaller ports that are flared at the ends, right? I have thought about the air-to-air, but my preference would be for something more space efficient since I plan to go FI eventually. I don't think anyone has tried this yet so I hope to get it to work successfully.
Beta tester discount? J/K.

Yes the two small flared ports are for the transmission cooler. We have seen decreased temps across the board when adding the upgraded radiator. If you are planning to go FI in the future I would suggest the external cooler but for daily driving this would be neat. |

I'd like to see the oil temp effect of the CSF radiator. During spirited driving and in traffic.
