Description
The Mishimoto Universal Oil Cooler Kit, part number MMOC-U16TSL, pairs a silver anodized 16-row stacked-plate cooler with Mishimoto’s thermostatic billet sandwich plate for precise oil temperature control. Built around a bar-and-plate core rated for high fluid pressures, this Performance-grade kit is engineered to knock down oil temps with minimal pressure loss, whether you’re running a stock engine or a boosted rotary and blown small block on the track.
Consistent oil temperature regulation is essential to preserving engine life, and this Mishimoto oil cooler kit gives you the hardware to make it happen. The thermostatic sandwich plate limits oil flow to the cooler until the oil reaches optimal temperature, a feature especially useful for drivers in cooler climates who want to avoid over-cooling. Everything routes through preassembled stainless steel braided oil lines fitted with -10AN connections and dowty seals, so you get durable, leak-free plumbing right out of the box. As a true universal oil cooler kit, it includes both a 3/4-16 and an M20-1.5 sandwich plate adapter, extending compatible fitment to most makes and models rather than locking you into a single application.
Vehicle Applications
Because this Mishimoto cooler kit ships with dual 3/4-16 and M20-1.5 sandwich plate adapters, it’s designed to support most makes and models rather than a single specific chassis. Mishimoto positions this kit for enthusiasts running boosted rotary engines or blown small blocks who need reliable oil cooling for sustained track use, making it a flexible option for builds where a vehicle-specific oil cooler isn’t available.
