Hopefully this helps someone before they decide to buy one.

Pictures? Are you using the cooler before or after the pump?
Just to clarify, before would be the oil as it enters the pump and after is just the opposite.

Hi,
It was plumbed on the return line to the tank, I assumed not to put anything before the pump as it requires the most amount of oil flow, maybe someone can correct me if I’m wrong. As for pictures I’m not sure as yet how to add them from my iPad.
