I need to source an oil cooler kit for a 306 rallye track car, Just wondered if there is a preffered supplier that folks use on here, before plunging balls deep into an ebay purchase.

Plus the ones on ebay are from Matt Lewis Racing, and ive read bad things on passionford about his service etc etc.

Im after a 19 row cooler and fitting kit with thermostat.

Any ideas?

Don't buy a kit is what I will say,
Reason being is your limited on Cooler location.
Best buy a cooler and take off mount and then get the hoses to suit, Again only use hoses with proper fittings and not hose clips/press fit pipes as these can fall off
That's the only way I supply them

I had Think automotive make me some pipes to fit, had 2 40inch pipes for £40. fitted the cooler behind my bumper then. the pipes that cames with my cooler were way too short and angled wrong. best is to buy seperate and you'll get it exactly how you want it and it'll work out about the same price.
