well for one you add one more qt of oil = 3.5 qt instead 2.5 qt w/stock oil tank.
also it will cool down up to 30 degree what I have been told by pringy. meaning cooler engine.....

and the look of course..... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

What if someone made after markey oil hoses that were lined with coper wiring that tapered to the outside of the hose and created a cooling effect through the hoses. Then again i am a dumb noob who doesnt know what hes talking about and this probably wont work.
