Just a heads up for you oil cooler installers: The mocal "thermostatic" oil sandwich plate does little to manage oil temperature. Driving on the highway in cool (70f) weather the oil temp does not exceed 160f, way too cool for engine health. Might get up to 200f driving around town. You will need to fashion a removable airflow blocker to use for daily driving.
