I'm half way thru a 205 gti6 engine conversion (for road rallying) and wondering if I can get rid of the heat exchanger and just fit a sandwich plate straight to the block? I have a 13 row mocal oil cooler, pipes and all fittings here off my old rally car and I've got the sandwich plate arriving 2 moz. BTW this is not D James but a mate of his who he's allowed to use his username to ask this....  ________________________________________ d james |

its actually better to retain it and fit a shorter Renault filter, better warmup times.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

If you remove it you'll need part no. 1103.54 to allow you to bolt on the sandwich plate________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look' |

I've just literally done this on mine all I've done though is remove the Coolant pipes and bridge them together. Will be fitting it directly to the block when I get the correct centre bolt Though  . So far so good doesn't take long to warm up still and oil temps are 10 degrees lower. Gave it some s**t the other night and never saw past 100________________________________________ Black power baby!

I wanna remove the heat exchanger completely now as it has a minor weap of oil. Thought it was the rubber O ring behind it but still leaking. Want to bolt the mocal sandwich plate straight to the block which requires a male thread at both ends. ________________________________________ Black power baby!

That's what I'm thinking I'll have to do. It's a lot shorter than I'd have liked. Turned up from pug today about £6 plus vat________________________________________ Black power baby!
