| External Oil Cooler Thermoswitches |
| Make sure that your fan is working well with a new thermoswitch. This switch senses when the oil temperature gets hotter than a certain amount, and then turns on the fan. The stock switch turns on around 240-degrees Fahrenheit (110-degrees Celsius), but you can replace it with a cooler one that turns on at a lower temperature. Some slight wiring modifications may be required in order to use the cooler thermoswitches (they have different connectors on their ends). |

| Aftermarket External Oil Cooler Kits |
B&B Tri-Flo Cooler Kit -The B&B cast aluminum oil coolers are excellent upgrades for your standard 911 oil cooler. The radiator fin coolers are manufactured out of aluminum, and will reduce the operating temperature of your engine greater than the standard fender-mounted trombone oil cooler. The fender-mounted cooler comes complete with electric fan that can be turned on automatically (based on oil temperatures), or with a manually operated switch. The front spoiler-mounted cooler is designed for use with race cars having an aftermarket spoiler with an oil cooler cutout in the front. Both coolers are constructed out of cast aluminum, CNC-machined for precision, and then arc-welded for super-tough construction. Both make a great alternative to the standard Porsche Carrera Oil Cooler. Both coolers contain attachment lines and mounting hardware to attach to cars already equipped with front-fender mounted oil coolers. Cars without front-mounted oil coolers will need to install the oil lines and thermostat that run up the underside of the car.
External Radiator Style Cooler -These External Radiator Style coolers are good multipurpose coolers that can be mounted just about anywhere. Available in 3 different sizes, these coolers are designed to radiate heat much better than previous tubed oil coolers. Used by some of the top racers, these coolers come equipped with AN fittings for easy oil line attachment. Works great with the Mocal Thermostat (sold below). The 16-row cooler has 10AN (5/8") fittings and is 4 7/8" high. The 19-row cooler has 12AN (3/4") fittings and is 5 3/4" high. The 25-row cooler has 12AN (3/4") fittings and is 7 5/8" high. All oil coolers have 10" spacings between the fittings.
Lemke Oil Cooler The Lemke design Terbatrol heat exchanger oil cooler features the technologically advanced internal helical fins. These are responsible for the incomparable heat transfer efficiency from oil to the 26mm copper alloy cooling tubes. The tubes are wound with robust concentric fins to provide heat radiation into the atmosphere. Chromium-nickel alloy is used to furnace braze these fins at high temperature, resulting in a perfect metal bond to the tube. This permits maximum heat transfer into the fins, thus maintaining them at a high temperature differential to cooling air and enhancing heat dissipation capability. This chromium-nickel diffusion is also used to coat the fins and tube to provide protection against hostile environments. Finally, the assembly is zinc electroplated. These robust lo air resistance and high cooling performance oil coolers are mounted in the traditional 911 right front fender location. The system kits offered will greatly extend engine service life and increase the oil temperature safety margins against catastrophic failures. The Lemke Complete Kit comes as either a complete kit for 1974-77 cars not equipped with any external oil coolers. This kit includes lines to adapt the cooler to the engine, as well as a thermostat to control oil flow when the car is cold. The Lemke Replacement Kit includes the cooler and lines to attach it to 1978-89 cars that were originally equipped with a front-mounted oil cooler.
Compact Oil Cooler -The Compact Oil Cooler will cure your overheating concerns. Installed during an oil change, it takes only a few minutes and uses existing oil lines and fittings. The free flowing oil cooler is 13 inches long {MDL.# CPT-0911} and 3 inches in diameter and has over 500 sq. Inches of surface area to insure fast and efficient heat transfer. The all aluminum cooler is tested to 3000 PSI and is bulletproof. Need that extra margin of safety? Get the compact cooler and worry no more. Road and bench tests have shown a 15 degree reduction in oil temperature using the compact cooler. Due to differences in cars and driving conditions your results may vary. |

| Mocal Oil Cooling Kit |
| If your 911 already has the trombone cooler in the fender well with all the lines leading up to it, then this is the kit you need. You'll get much better cooling at an economical price. The kit includes: • (1) 19 row 235 matrix (11 x 6 x 2 inches) oil cooler with 3/4-inch fittings
• (2) 90-deg 3/4 fittings
• (2) 30 mm straight fitting
• (2) 3/4 oil hose NOTE: As sold, the kit requires you to drill holes in order to mount the cooler. Some buyers prefer to spend the time to modify the mounts to fit the existing holes. |

Center-Mount 911 Oil Cooler Kit  |
| Add a center-mounted oil cooler to 1965-89 911 for maximum cooling. This is a great solution for race cars and 3.6 liter conversions. For connection to existing brass oil lines in the front fender, either factory or finned oil lines. If your car has no external cooler now, you will need to purchase necessary lines and hoses. Fittings are high-flow factory-type 30mm throughout, no restrictive AN fittings or adapters are used. Don't settle for inferior solutions! Note: A suitable front bumper/valance is required, not included. STD-172 coolers require 26 inches of width in the front valance. Installer will need to fabricate mounting brackets based on valance and space requirements. For mounting in series with a fender-mount cooler you must substitute 1 90 degree hose end for 1 straight hose end. Call for details. Hose is cut-to-length based on final oil cooler mounting position and hose-ends crimped on. RS air duct is a highly recommended addition to this kit. |
