Looking for an oil cooler to replace the standard rad fed cooler...
Thermostatic sandwich plate and a small 10 or 13 row would be good.

you don't have to keep it, seen them fitted both with and without.
I think my exchanger is allowing oil into the water hence replacing.

I've got a 16 row Mocal kit with thermostatic takeoff if that's of any interest?

Its worth keeping the original heat exchanger. See, it won't cool the oil that much but what it will do is help warm it from cold quicker!

Don't take off the heat exchanger. You gain nothing by doing so and will have to wait longer for the oil to warm up.
