I don't think anything is as good as the OEM.



There's a webpage (sorry wish I could reference it) of a 13B in a plane and the guy tried several aftermarket coolers before switching to a OEM cooler. The difference in oil temp was quite large.

i've heard that before too, hmmmm i'll have to ask my uncle his buddy has a 13b in his plane... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

It would seem, similar to radiators, that the more rows the fluid passes through the better, or cooler if you will. A comparison of product and data, between oem and aftermarket would be useful, although the development that goes into oem products seems to be more than aftermarket, due to a bigger budget im assuming...

oem is good but can be improved upon.

I found a note in the MazdaTrix Catalog. They say they have tried all the aftermarket stuff and nothing is as good as the OEM... So I guess that confirms it. I suppose someone could run 2 of them?

Do they have a website?...or does summit racing sell them? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png[/quote]
