I mounted the Setrab oil coolers today.  The S-beam engine mount
provided a perfect shock absorbing attachment point.  I welded a 5"

1.375" x 058 bushing to the top washer in the Barry mount stack.
To
this is welded a tray that the Setrab sets in.  Eventually, there
will
be a shock absorbing material between the oil cooler and the tray.
The
entire assembly can pivot at the Barry mount, so one does not need

worry about holding the final position during construction.   Jerry

Jerry,
I'm very impressed !
Are they smaller than a stock cooler and is that why your using two?

The two combined are about the same size as the stock Mazda cooler.
The stock cooler is very difficult to fit under the cowl, unless you do
it as Paul suggests, right beside the radiator.  But that makes for a
very wide package under the engine.  The Setrabs fit nicely in the
cheeks and there will be  plenty of room under the engine for the
radiator.  It looks simple now, but I wondered how to mount the Setrabs
for about a year until today when finally it came to me.  Jerry
