    if it's dual-core, (or two cores in series, etc) that's ok too. and i'm interested in one for the passenger side too; because i plan to use an identical setup to cool the trans.

    subscribed so i can see pics when i get off work.
    I'll be working on one for the auto trans in the next few weeks.

    could... if you wanted....
    Ya could, but if I had to sell it... it would be too expensive LOL

    I'm not talking about slanting the intercooler, I'm talking about slanting the oil cooler, then baffling around it so that the air has no choice but to go through it no matter what angle it is...which will allow you to put in the largest oil cooler possible.

    i know what you meant. i also know that even with perfectly constructed baffles, airflow will be less rapid through a slanted application than through a normal one.

    p.s.

    an oil cooler is an intercooler. so is a tranny cooler. so is a radiator.

    Wouldn't having an oil cooler kit upside down cause oil starvation?

    No, as the cooler is straight off the pump, the only thing I would be worried about is the back flow after shutting the car off, I doubt its even a true issue though.
