sorry to drag the thread up but i have an oil cooler from a nissan 300zx twin turbo and was wondering if and how i could fit this to my 1.7 volvo 340. is it as simple as cut the oil feed line in half and plum it in onto either side of the oil cooler? do i have enough oil pressure to push the oil through the cooler?
any help apreciated. cheers

You need a sandwich plate to tee the oil lines into a 1.7 doesnt run one as standard. You need a sandwich plate so you can run the lines from it to the 300zx cooler.
