Madness Oil Cooler

I am finicky when it comes to the "immune systems" of cars i have played with in the past. I have always upgraded rads, fans, oil coolers and such just to be on the safe side while I pull more power from the vehicle.

This being said I'm quite interested in purchasing the Madness Oil cooler kit. Has / is anyone using this? I am curious as to how much customization is involved with the cooler itself. Do they suggest a mounting point? Are brackets provided? I have always used braided lines...what do they use? How ill it hold up compared to braided.

Ive see several right on top of the radiator... they appear effective... one guy was running pretty hot oil tems at the track and this solved his issues very nicely. We live in texas so it is even more beneficial with increased air temps...

I have one for sale. It never made it onto my car, which I'm in the process of selling. I have both the adaptor plate and the oil cooler. PM me if you're interested.
