I saw a pic of someones 350x,and said it had 2 oil coolers on it.With the big bore kit i have, i was thinking about doing the same.My biggest question is how do you hook up 2 of them?Can i use another stock one or go with the 300ex,250x,etc.or doesn't it matter?

If I were you I would go for a bigger size single oil cooler. Dual Oil coolers work well also, but I would think the oil pressure is lowered when you add another cooler plus all the extra oil line you would need. Howdy should have plenty to say about this...

Weather you decide to go with dual or single coolers, they are very easy to set up.

An oil cooler is an oil cooler, it doesnt matter if it's from a car or marine application, it works. The trick is, like your asking, is to get it to mount up. Anything in the relative size of our OEM oil coolers should be albe to mount up pretty easily, make a custom bracket, or use the old one and modify it a litle bit. I herd of someone rigging up a fan on their cooler, I believe it was Eric, he also replaced the factory lines with better and longer ones. You have a lot of options, I think from here on you will have to get out and take a look at the oil coolers you have avaliable and what you like. Maybe check out denniskirk.com and see if they have anything or go to a local auto parts store and see if they have any small trans coolers.
