3-5-09 Possible new product from G-Graft.
There isn’t much info on it but it looks like G-Craft is working on a lineless cooler design that attaches directly to the head. Not sure if this will solve the debate over oil pressure issues with running a cooler through lines or not but none the less its a clean looking approach to keeping motors cool. Will keep you posted if and when its added as a orderable product or if any more info on it surfaces.
