Simon,
Not worth the effort. Creates havoc with oil flow when cold unless fitted
with a thermostat operated bypass for a start.

Subject: [Healeys] Oil Cooler?
My nephew's BJ8 came with a boot full of mixed blessings from its PO.
Amongst all the manuals and stuff were two boxes containing an oil cooler
and mounting kit. NOS.(Actually, these items dated back quite a while.2 or 3
POs back).
So, he gave them to me as he wasn't remotely interested in fitting them. I
took them back to the UK and determined that I might fit the cooler "one
day". Well, as the car is up on a stand with the radiator out, it seems that
the day may have arrived. Minimal amount of work compared to having to do it
from scratch? Now:-
1. For someone who lives in a temperate climate and who seldom goes all
that fast in his Healey, how much benefit is there in a cooler?
2. The Denis Welch brackets look pretty good. Fit onto the lower
radiator mounts. Designed for their cooler but I think mine can be
shoehorned in.
Has anyone tried these brackets?
How easy/hard to fit?
3. I will not be cutting any holes. The cooler would sit in front of
the radiator in line with the lower mounts.
Is it a waste of time to put the cooler in there without a dedicated hole?
Will I gain as much heat by blocking some airflow to the radiator as I lose
with the cooler?
4. Seems like an oil cooler may just be a waste of effort???
Any thoughts?
Simon
