Also, before I forget....yes, there ARE detrimental effects to running oil TOO cold. It is a thing.

In my experience, you only need to take the plate off when you're gonna track it. I've had my cooler fully blocked off in the summer while spirited driving and my temps were ok. At most I would do 50% in the summer and 100% covered the redt of the year.

Actually I think I will just take it off and sell it. Not gonna track my Z ever again and I could use the cash for my house purchase. i will still need your help for this Rob. If anyone wants a 34 row Z1 oil cooler kit, let me know.

I don't want the whole cooler, I just need half of it if you can make me a half deal

b1adesofcha0s · 01-13-2014, 04:15 PM

Yeah that's what I thought, but I had to make sure.

XwChriswX · 01-13-2014, 05:24 PM

I still have some of the aluminum left over from when I made the full cover plate... was thinking about trimming a piece down to make a 50% cover plate for summer/runs.

Only question is, is it worth the hassle to swap?

one of your gauges on the top of your dash is your oil temp.
