Judging by the equipment in the back ground this is a one off piece.

You wont find something like that off the shelf. Mocal do a take off plate which I had fitted to my car:

Only problem the way it's designed, the unions would hit the alternator. A guy on M42 club had one fitted to his Z3 M44 and he welded some unions to it and made it work.


Why are you wanting to run an oil cooler? Are you seeing VERY high temperatures frequently?
