oil cooler fab and inlet reducer
Is it possible to fab up an oil cooler by drilling and tapping the case in a certain position?
Also does anyone know where to purchase some type of reducer for an sn series to hook up a 4" cold air intake pipe? The elbow is too big.
Thank you for the help!

I did this last week waiting on a rebuild kit. I may have to install a 90 degree fitting on the output side.
If you need pics let me know

Yes, would you please send them to t.birdsc@hotmail.com. If I understand correctly, you are placing the suction inlet to the full level mark and the output return higher. Would you then fill to the full mark after allowing for purge and do you think there is any chance of cavitation by not having the suction inlet at the bottom of the case?
Thank you, Mike.
