would like to put oil cooler on my 55 bird-- stock 292---- i do not remember seeing any oil gallery plugs around the oil filter or oil pump area to do this ..(like some big block chevy 427's did)---what must i do?? is there a 'oil cooler adapter available like the one i bought from the hot rod shop to do this on my 455 olds v-8?? (this went between the filter and the block)-- and didn't i see a 55 bird with an remote oil filter mounted on the inner fender panels in one of the forum posts a while back??? thanks to all for any help or photos....bye ed
