Engine Oil Coolers
« on: May 13, 2009, 06:38:48 AM »
I have seen some of these in moto magazines but has anybody found a web-site to buy engine oil coolers from for four stroke dirt bikes?

I most cases I think you need to add an external oil line which entails drilling and tapping the cases and head.  Relatively easy install, but you have to take the engine apart. Cam.

Seems like I saw some that were using a diff. oil filter cover that had the nipples/oil line connection and external small radiator that piggy backed the engines radiator. I know someone sells a full kit that is simple install. I guess I'll need to dig back through my moto mags.
