    oil cooler adapter who make them on here?

    I'm thinking about either making a adapter or buying one if it's resonable price wise? I do have a oil temp gauge aswell so I don't want to lose that either. Thanks

    If you are talking about an 8V look for a member whose handle is "Terry"

      I might have one or could possiably make one for you. I'll check my stash of parts. You did see the tutorial on how to make one didn't you? It's pretty simple really as long as you have a drill press.

            Im trying to hook up an oil cooler to my 82 1100g and sent an email to Terry but no response. Reading another forum a user said similar. Anyone know someone else that makes the adapter plates? Id make it myself but have neither the skills or tools Id be willing to purchase a whole kit (plate, lines, cooler, brackets) if anyone has that lying around.

                Thanks for the plug there Dan, but since Terry lives "down unda" he may be worth looking up there. He has posted about his SOHC Honda's before so you might want to look for him on some Honda forums. If all else fails I can help but my adapters are somewhat "industrial", as opposed to the machined from billet look some prefer.

                      Think I'm going to build up a few of these and have them available for people in need. They are pretty easy to make but you do need a drill press and the proper sized drill and tap for the fittings. If anyone is serious in wanting one please drop me a PM. This particular type of adapter requires the use of an oil pressure sensor of the type shown - about $11 from NAPA or similar.

                          Would any one have a dimentioned drawing of the oil cooler adaptor plate as to mesure mine I need to get the carbs out and the less I do that the happier I will be.
