Mishimoto 79-93 Ford Mustang 5.0L Thermostatic Oil Cooler Kit - Silver

Mishimoto is known for making well-built cooling components, and this thermostatic oil cooler kit is no exception for your 1979-1993 Ford Mustang 5.0L. The Fox Body Mustang is a popular car for its light chassis and strong engine, but high-performance builds, especially those with turbochargers or superchargers, can generate a lot of extra heat. This heat breaks down your oil faster and can lead to increased engine wear. This kit is designed to help protect your engine by keeping oil temperatures in check.

This kit features a substantial 19-row oil cooler that’s positioned in the front bumper area to catch as much airflow as possible, which is key for efficient cooling. It also adds over half a quart to your total oil capacity. The kit includes a custom mounting bracket specifically for the Fox Body Mustang, pre-assembled oil lines, fittings, and a thermostatic sandwich plate. The thermostatic plate is a smart addition because it helps control oil temperature by allowing the oil to warm up to operating temperature before it goes through the cooler, and then it regulates the flow to keep it from getting too cold. Installation is straightforward and can typically be done in under two hours, with minimal pressure loss. This particular version comes with a silver cooler finish.

This Mishimoto oil cooler kit is a solid option for anyone looking to improve the longevity and performance of their 5.0L Mustang, especially if you've added more power. It comes with everything you need for a clean installation, including all necessary hardware. As with all Mishimoto products, this kit is backed by their lifetime warranty.
