Just gonna start fabricating a Vmount, but i could do with loosing the ps cooler. Just wondered if anybody has done this and if it would be ok?
Yup, and have had no problems at all. Only real test was 20 mins on track at japfest.
I ran an oil to water cooler last year.
Still got it if you are interested? Comes complete with the braided lines

Hi Robbie,
I lost my "snake" around 6 or 7 years ago for the first time in my quest to tidy my engine bay and have repeated this along with other people on many other cars and never ever had a problem.
If the power steering fluid overheats it will give off a pungent smell and discolor all of which I checked for a long time initaly before performing or advising this on other FD\'s,
Just make sure you use proper 10mm fuel/oil resistant hose to carry out the conversion.
Hope this helps,
Good advice about checking the fluid.
If it helps, Pirtek sell the correct hose for the return line. It\'s fractionally oversized, but nips up perfectly with jubilees :)
anyone have a writeup with pics for this? :P
