Description
The Mishimoto Universal Oil Cooler Kit, part number MMOC-U16BK, pairs a black-anodized, non-thermostatic billet aluminum sandwich plate with Mishimoto’s proven 16-row stacked-plate cooler core. Built as a true universal platform rather than a single-application part, this Cooling category kit ships with dual sandwich plate adapters so it can be bolted onto a wide range of engine setups looking to keep oil temperatures under control.
Proper oil temperature regulation is key to extending and preserving the life of a stock or high-performance engine, and this Mishimoto oil cooler kit is built around that goal. At its core is the Mishimoto 16-row stacked-plate cooler, a bar-and-plate performance core that can withstand high fluid pressures while significantly reducing oil temperatures and exhibiting minimal pressure loss. The kit is completed with preassembled stainless steel braided oil lines using -10AN fittings and dowty seals for durable, leak-free connections, plus the black anodized sandwich plate that mounts inline with the factory oil filter. Whether you’re running a boosted rotary or a blown small block, this Mishimoto cooler kit is engineered to help keep your engine out of the shop and on the road or track.
Vehicle Applications
Because this is a universal Mishimoto oil cooler kit, it is not tied to a single make or model. It includes both -16 (3/4-16) and M20-1.5 sandwich plate adapters, which Mishimoto designed to support fitment for most makes and models, giving builders flexibility to install the kit on a variety of engine platforms rather than a fixed application list. This particular MMOC-U16BK version is finished in black and uses the standard, non-thermostatic sandwich plate.
