Oil Cooler

Post by zar162b4 »

Hello,
I was planning to install an oil cooler on my car (alfa 75 twin spark 2.0, standard engine). In fact, last Sunday I went to the Appennini mountains and the day was pretty sunny and hot. I noticed that when going uphill, the oil pressure tended to drop to non optimal values after some time. The oil light never switched on, but anyway I felt a little concerned.
My plan would be to do as follows:
- Mocal OTSP1 plate with integrated thermostat (on their website, they say it is possible to costumize the temperature at which thermostat opens, stock temperature is 80°C, would you recommend 90°C?)
-Alfa 164 or Alfa 166 2.0 v6 Turbo oil radiator (I can relatively easily find them at the scrap yard too, or would you recommend to buy a new one?)

I would greatly appreciate your comments and suggestions on this.
Thank you
Regards
Oscar
