Balanced Cooling.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EC6-603 is the ultimate \"do-it-all\" oil cooling solution for C6 Corvettes that see mixed duty between the street, the drag strip, and the autocross course. This kit is designed to solve a specific problem: keeping oil temperatures safe without blocking airflow to the radiator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOptimized for Airflow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike massive track-only coolers that can obstruct airflow to the radiator, this kit utilizes our efficient MHX-221C double-pass cooler. It provides oil cooling performance comparable to the factory Z06 setup but with a significantly smaller footprint. This compact design allows more air to pass through to the radiator, resulting in lower engine coolant temperatures—a critical advantage for cars running air conditioning in hot climates or waiting in staging lanes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStreet-Friendly Warm-Up\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit is perfectly streetable thanks to the included patented thermostatic oil cooler adapter. The thermostat creates a bypass that allows engine oil to reach safe operating temperatures much faster than the factory oil cooler system, which lacks a thermostat. This eliminates the \"over-cooling\" issues common with factory Z06 systems during highway driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe Z06 oil temp sensor is located at the bottom of the dry sump oil tank. Because the cooled oil returns to the tank before reaching the sensor, your dashboard gauge may read roughly 20°F lower than the actual temperature at the thermostat. Do not be alarmed if your displayed oil temps appear slightly lower than the thermostat's rating.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMotorsport-Grade Components\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe don't cut corners on plumbing.
