Not Ranked
I agree with the English Gentleman. I too use the Mocal Sandwich Style Adapter with the built-in thermostat and it works "bloody soo-pah" once I had a go at it with a die grinder. Also, using that adapter certainly did cut down on the amount of plumbing involved. I will concede, though, that having a maze of stainless braided hoses and colorful fittings snaking around under your hood sure does impress the lookey loos at the car shows. I used -10 hoses and fittings to the oil cooler and the electric pre-luber and everything works great. I had asked an engine builder what size hose to use and he recommended using the -10, saying that there were no oil passages in the engine even that large so he saw no sense in going with hoses any larger than that.
