Robert, I have that installed on my 74 "6" with the thermostat. I also
used 20-50 and have a aluminum radiator. Temp never moves. Oil changes are
another matter. No way to get the oil out of cooler unless you could use
compress air, I think. Never tried it, just empty what I can and go from
there. Mounted the thermostat on the body just above the engine mount.
Seemed to work ok there. good luck. Harry Mague

Hello All,
I am considering adding an oil cooler (13 row) to my 74 TR6. TRF has them
on sale and now may be a good time to purchase. I run 20-50 and really only
drive the car in the summer. I have noticed a drop in pressure as the car
warms up to around 10-15PSI at idle. My questions are do I need to add a
thermostat? When changing the oil how to you get old oil out of the cooler, or
do you need not worry about that? Any other concerns I should be aware of.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Robert
