The oil cooler fits the space in front of the water rad but behind
the grill. There is enough space if the cooler is placed as near to the
bottom as possible and the horn is moved around. The oil coller lines 
then exit to the right (looking at the front of the car), and use the
2-3" hole, where the heater ducting fits. The lines then snake round,
underneath the alternator and to the sandwhich plate.

Don't worry if the oil cooler blocks air flow to the water rad slighlty,
because the oil cooler will also be cooling the engine, so you should
have no water cooling problems.
