Oil Cooler .......continued

After staring at the oil cooler shroud for a few months, I decided I didn't like it, looked a bit busy, so its now hanging on the shed wall, I'm too proud to throw it our yet, decided to simplify with just an upper and lower mount.

Also made up a tab mount to secure the upper oil cooler plate to the front outrigger that fits between the radiator opening and the oil cooler opening instead of "P" clamps.


Lower Oil Cooler Mounting Bracket,
8mm RivNuts inserted into the chassis,
The bracket sits on 3 bushes.








In this pic, you can see the tab plate welded to the out rigger and the Mocal 16 row oil cooler.
Oil cooler fitted with -8AN fittings.










View from the top,
Aluminium cover plate secured to the top oil cooler mounts and the chassis tabs.











Assembled view.
Just need to sand and paint the out rigger again.
