Remote Oil Thermostat - -10AN Mocal Remote Oil Thermostat

im sure GTM will put together an oil cooler kit to go along with this SC kit anyway... but you can see here thats its just a matter of 2 hoses, a cooler, and that thermostat if you want one.
You beat me to it, i've used that style before on other cars with great success. The other thing i'm sure a lot of people are forgetting is you should be able to mount that oil filter anywhere you like. I'm sure GTM can offer other solutions as far as the oil lines, or you could just pick up some AN fittings and move it anywhere you want. in doing that you could even run a much larger than factory filter if you felt it necessary.

As far as the filters, i thought somewhere in the other thread it was said that it was done for clearance reasons. Two smaller pipes fit and one large one didn't. Rather than just bottle neck down, they split it in two.
