ARC Cool Fins (2)

chops · 10-02-2014, 10:46 PM

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.

These are worth it -- stick on the bottom of your oil pan to drop oil temps -- I am a big fan of these.

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.

Cool, thanks. 2 covers pretty much the entire pan?

1LIFE · 10-05-2014, 07:54 PM

Yeah pretty much

chops · 10-06-2014, 12:43 AM

yea, i used 2.5 to completely cover the bottom. i can throw in the half i have leftover as a bonus! they're about half an inch thick. should fit without any issues, but of course i cant guarantee anything

I will take these (and the half one, too, if available). Ready to pay

JARblue · 10-09-2014, 04:06 PM

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
