Reviews & Ratings
48 plate external oil cooler kit.
A must on high performance engines. Manufactured from aircraft quality aluminium this oil cooler (Mesa cooler) offers maximum cooling. Kits are supplied with an oil filter head and all other fittings to fit including oil hose. More hose may be needed depending on the location of the cooler. Included in this kit is a bypass adaptor designed to replace the standard oil cooler
We do not recommend using this oil cooler kit on standard beetles and buses, ideally you should retain the standard oil cooler with the external cooler as an addition item fed with a full flow system. The bypass adaptor is fine for beach buggies and trikes.

Product Questions
When using this external oil cooler as part of a full flow system on a 1973 Beetle 1303 is a thermostat required to prevent over cooling? I see in some of the external coolers the description explicitly states, "A thermostatic switch must be used with a relay to control the cooling fan" but its not stated for this kit.
Question by: Lee on 16 Nov 2023, 11:11
No Thermostat is needed, the thermostatic switch is for the ones with fans on, and turns it on and off at a certain temperature controlled by a bimetal disk
