ARC Cool Fins (2)
i have 2 sets of ARC cool fin's left from when i ordered them a while back. they seem to work, at least a smidge. previous track day before installing and i was hitting 250F within 2 laps in 90F ambient weather. this past track day after installing them, i ran 3-4 laps in the same weather or HOTTER before temps hit 250F. i was quite surprised.
ARC advertises 10C cooling reduction, but i dont buy it. i stuck 3 of these on my stock oil pan and it helps at least a little bit. they stick on via a double stick 3M thermal transfer pad. they are physically 4inch x 4inch in size letting them go for $35 shipped each or $65 if you want both. paypal fees are on me. |

How tall are these? Trying to figure out if I have the room between the pan and Zspeed undertray.

Chuck if you aren't using an oil pan spacer they will fit. I have 2 on my oil pan and the Z speed undertray as well.

Payment sent. I wanted to gift, but my paypal balance is gone and they wanted to charge me for using a card. So I just threw in a couple extra bucks to split the fees
