Id try the spal fan first, it works very well. Im trying to find someone who can install the FST oil cooler on mine

[Pipeless416]

if you're looking for the absolute best in cooling, then the FST cooler is the way to go. it is somewhat involved, but if you have basic knowledge of using drills and taps, you can probably do it. give the spal fan a try first though, because one little screw up and your clutch cover is toast.

[jman7290]

Did you install yours? I am more concerned about where to drill the holes more than anything!

[Pipeless416]

[thebig450es]

Here's an article that shows some of the installation:

[thebig450es]

It seems like their website isnt up dated very often, so prices may be different

[Pipeless416]

if you simply find an oil cooler that will fit on the front frame rails, it would not be hard to do it yourself. all it takes is two AN-6 fittings, i believe 3/8 hose, a drill, a tap, and the cooler.

[Zakradu398]

Not related lol but OP, are you copying and pasting your sig in every post you make??:D :p :p :p

[SHIFTx450]

Who's got pics of the completed setup on the bike?

Curious as to how clean the setup looks.

[djwilliams0822]

The thing with the FST cooler is that the oil has less lubrication when it is hot and it is more important to lubricate the bottom end of the quad first then the top because the rocker arms don't need as this oil as the bottom. What do you guys think?

[Pipeless416]

you're right in half of your comment. yes, oil does break down quicker under higher heat, however there's a lot more to the top end than just the rocker arms. don't forget about the cam lobes and bearings. i wouldn't necessarily say one part is more important than the other. a lack of oil to either the top or bottom end can cause catastrophic failure in any engine. however, the FST setup does not change how much oil either section is getting.. so i'm not quite sure where you were going with that comment...?

[djwilliams0822]

Well I just thought lubricating the bottom would be more important, im not sure though.

Pics of cooler on bike?

its hard to see. someday i'll take pictures of just the cooler mounted up because a lot of people ask this question.

[djwilliams0822]

Why is your exhaust running down the opposite side?

Lol that's pipeless!

Yo pipe less thanks for the pics! And show him the back of your bike to answer his question.

[djwilliams0822]

:devil:

[djwilliams0822]

Wow. Are you getting better performance on it with dual stock pipes?

[05DodgeDakota]

that is so badass, wanna sell me your setup? lol

not quite sure. i didn't get the chance to jet it correctly. it pulled pretty well until it stumbled all over the place because the main is too rich.

[Stickman400]

This is outta the blue, but every G-Force axle I've seen has the sticker on upside down and backwards, what is up with that? Those dual HMFs with that red /black color setup looks nasty.

[djwilliams0822]

Its not upside down and backwards until it is flipped that way if you spin it it gets right

[djwilliams0822]

Does the pipe on the left burn your leg?

nope, burned the hair on my head giving me a temporary bald spot while changing the oil before though. anyway, i have a hhhhuge thread titled "trying to fab dual HMFs" if you guys are interested. i would be happy to answer any questions there, but for now i feel like we're majorly thread jacking :chinese:
