gil marine oil cooler

I bought a huge gil oil cooler at a swap meet today...........It has to be 4in diameter and almost two feet long.....It was still in the box and chromed...........good coolers or no seems to be built awsome

Re: gil marine oil cooler

Something that big is probably going to need a thermostat for the oil. I bought a 3" by 20" oil cooler / ps cooler for 115$ chromed out a couple of weeks ago myself.

HAven't mounted it yet, but I think it will do the trick for my 509 whipple motor.

Hope you can find some mounting hardware for it. I have only seen 3" and 2" supports.

From Hardin marine ....

Quote:

FACT: Chroming of any cooler reduces its cooling capacity by as much as 40% so always paint or coat your cooler for best results. Don't risk your engine life to a poorly constructed cooler, it's what's inside that counts - demand Hardin Marine coolers.

I dont buy it though ....the heat is dissipated via the water ...m
