Hold on there partner!
On all rubber bumper B's imported to The States, the oil cooler was deleted
as a standard item - it was an option, and most B buyers opted against.
Still, it is a worthwhile fitment, particularly in warm climates. I added
one to my B, but put a shroud on it around this time of year, as the air
temp drops.
