Mocal Oilcooler Sandwich Plate Stud

[dave205 19]

I have a 13row mocal oil cooler to run on my 205 turbo, but the adaptor/stud that the sandwhich plate sits on, wont wind into the block. The thread in the block is metric fine, and the other one is unf, any ideas on this??

It means you've got the wrong adaptor.

 

They come in various metric and UNC/UNF threads to fit different engines. You need one with an M20x1.5 thread.

Do they come engine specific? As the the 406 had a water over oil cooler.

Just remove the old water/oil heat exhanger (cooler) and you are done.

I have, but im fitting a proper mocal oil cooler, so need the correct lenght stud to fit the sandwhich plate.

Just buy a new adaptor then:

The mocal stud length is the same regardless of whether you have the standard heat exchanger or not. I.E as long as its m20 thread (20x1.5) then it will be fine.

The original stud is twice the lenght of the mocal one.

If the original is twice the length can you not just cut it down?

[dave205 19]

Its not that simple unfortunatly, the original is male and male threaded and the mocal is a different thread, and its female and male, u 'll and get a picture on here
