Re: Installing engine oil temperature gauge - TJ
I don't like to introduce problems, like adapters like an oil
cooler cause. Unless you plan on sustained high speed driving like the
Baja one thousand, then you don't need the headache. If you are then go
all the way and convert to a dry sump. Put your money in a four core
radiator, like the stock Corvette uses.
