I was happy about the oil cooler installation with the exception of one thing; the front cross brace.  It was just to thin.  I remade it with 1/8″ thick aluminum angle.  Now it doesn’t move vertically.  Instead of nutplates on the aluminum angle which attach it to the front of the oil cooler I opted for plain old nuts on the bottom.  There was very little room to get a socket wrench in there to get those out from the top.  With nuts on the bottom it’s a snap.

I found the inlet ramps and the oil door.
