Greetings,
 
While Paul was playing with foam today (practicing to come do my oil cooler scoop I hope <g>), I was filling the garage with aluminum chips.  Attached are some pics of the adapter that I made to bolt to the rear housing.  I'm pretty damn proud of it, so if you have any negative complaints, keep them to yourself :-)
 
To explain the fittings, my oil cooler has one inlet, and two outlets.  I decided to sent the normal AN-12 outlet to the AN-12 fitting that you see on this adapter.  This connects the outlet tank of the oil cooler to the regulator.  The other outlet of the cooler will be an AN-8 hose that goes to the inlet of the filter (see oil filter adapter part two tomorrow).  The outlet of the filter goes to the AN-8 fitting that you see on this adapter.  There is also an oil temp sender mounted in the adapter. 
 
Have I mentioned that I love having the tools to do this stuff :-) 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (irritating the Sonerai guys with my blasphemous rotary plans)
